Abstract

A group of 683 patients with the significant narrowing (> 70%) of at least one coronary vessel diagnosed by coronarography performed between 1976-1988 in the Institute of Cardiology in Warsaw was followed during one to seven years. Two hundred ninety of them were treated surgically, 393 non surgically. A multivariate logistic function (MLF) analysis of 10 variables is presented obtained from anamnesis and hemodynamic data and their significance upon survival after 2, 4 and 6 years. In the group treated non surgically the number of narrowed vessels was a factor independently significant after 2, 4 and 6 years. After 4 and 6 years the ejection fraction and the left ventricle end diastolic volume index were also significant. In the group treated surgically none of those were significant after 2 years. After 4 and 6 years anamnesis of arterial hypertonia was significant after 6 years also left ventricle end diastolic volume index. Coefficients calculated from multivariate logistic function analysis allow the calculation of probability of survival for an individual patient.
