[Effectiveness of medical rehabilitation of elderly patients who have suffered a myocardial infarction.].

At all stages of recovery after myocardial infarction (MI), the expansion of physical activity of elderly patients is one of the most important components. Of course, certain restrictions can reduce the load on the myocardium, reduce its oxygen needs and create conditions for early healing. Subsequently, depending on the dynamics and indicators of the cardiovascular system, the elderly patient is transferred from one stage of activity to another, the level of blood pressure, the number of heartbeats, the presence of arrhythmia, electrocardiogram data, EchoCG data, as well as individual load tolerance are evaluated. To date, there is a huge selection of optimal options for selecting methods of medical rehabilitation for elderly patients who have suffered a MI, and one of them is mechanotherapy. The mechanical therapy program of the David Back Concept complex - strength training is a set of simulators for working on the back muscles. The medical and diagnostic complex is designed for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of pathologies of the musculoskeletal system, as well as for the rehabilitation of patients after surgical interventions and spinal injuries. Medical rehabilitation of elderly patients with coronary heart disease and after a MI through mechanotherapy, the program of the David Back Concept complex, provides for the restoration of their physical and social status to an optimally achievable level, determined by the capabilities of adaptive mechanisms.
