METHOD FOR REHABILITATION OF PATIETNS WITH ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61B5/402 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: stress test is administered by performing a physical load accompanied by recording cardiac parameters followed by performing a training load. The training load is preceded by administering a repeated stress test 30-60 minutes following the first one. The cardiac parameter consists in recording ST segment displacement and calculating ST index. The ST indices subsequent to the results of the first and second stress tests are compared. If the second index tends to decrease as compared to the first one by at least 10%, the training load is performed. A third stress test is administered 30-60 minutes later to evaluate a third ST index. The training load is performed for 24-48 hours on completion of the second stress test. The training load represents alternative clamping and blood flow recovery in the peripheral vessels. One cycle is expected to consist of at least 4 cycles of clamping and recovery procedures in the peripheral blood vessels. Besides, each clamping and recovery within the training load cycle alternates for 3-5 minutes.

EFFECT: method enables reducing the rehabilitation time of the IHD patients and reducing a risk of complications by providing a sparing load pattern.
