FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: invention may be used to predict a developing myocardial dysfunction in the children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at different stages of polychemotherapy (PCT). The method involves the blood examination for the iron metabolism parameters, namely before the beginning of polychemotherapy (1) and after the induction of remission (2), blood serum ferritin, hepcidin and iron are evaluated in the patients; the derived values are inserted into the equations to calculate varying ECG, IMS, B() NT-pro-BNP after the completion of the intensive PCT course (3) and the total coefficient K is calculated by formula K=ECG3* IMS3* B)3* NT-pro-BNP3, wherein a probability of the myocardial dysfunction is stated by the total coefficient, namely: the coefficient K> 0.24 ensures predicting the developing cardiac complications, while K <0.24 show a lower risk of the cardiac complications.EFFECT: possibility to detect a risk of the developing myocardial dysfunction accompanying the early PCT by the biochemical parameters, namely in terms of iron metabolism.1 tbl, 1 ex |
