METHOD FOR PREDICTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHRONIC COR PULMONALE IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC PROFESSIONAL DUST BRONCHITIS

摘要

FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention is referred to the field of medicine, namely to the area of functional diagnostics. It serves for presence or absence of respiratory failure accompanying ischemic heart disease and arterial hypertension in patients with chronic professional dust bronchitis. The blood type is specified. The determination of mass index of left ventricle myocardium, average pressure in pulmonary artery and sphericity index of left ventricle is performed. Taking into account those parameters the prognostic criteria are defined for determination of prediction of chronic cor pulmonale development in patients with chronic professional dust bronchitis. The total prognostic ratio is determined which is used to predict the probability of chronic cor pulmonale development in this patient. ^ EFFECT: method provides for quality detection of population with high risk of chronic cor pulmonale development for timely prophylactic measures and does not require significant material expenses. ^ 1 dwg, 2 ex, 1 tbl
