Prognosis of Coronary Heart Disease and Progression of Coronary Arteriosclerosis in Postinfarction Patients Under the Age of 40

  • Conference paper
Myocardial Infarction at Young Age

Abstract

The course of coronary heart disease may be evaluated by two different approaches:

  1. I.

    By determination of the annual mortality in relation to different clinical and angiographic parameters.

  2. II.

    By evaluation of changes in coronary morphology by means of follow-up coronary angiographies.
