Aim. To study dynamics of acute psychosis (АР) incidence and clinical features during reanimation period of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treatment, according to ten-year data from a large specialized Cardiology Center. Material and methods. The study was based on the case history data of all AMI patients, treated at Reanimation and Emergency Care Department, Yekaterinburg Clinical Center «Cardiology» (YeCCC), in 1995-2004 (in total, 12 048 case histories). From these data, 473 histories were selected, with AP registered during reanimation period of AMI treatment. Results. In 10 years, AP incidence increased from 1.57% to 5.65%. AP was registered significantly more often in AMI patients aged over 60 years. Myocardial damage severity determined AP development in reanimation period of AMI treatment. There was a significant positive correlation between AP in reanimation period of AMI treatment and lethality, regardless of age and AMI size. Conclusion. A non-precedent (by data volume and, therefore, by observed correlations and differences' significance) study of AP development in reanimation period of AMI treatment, based on 10-year data from one of the largest Russian Cardiology Centers, was performed. The results point to the problem's actuality in modern cardiology practice, and to a need for timely AP diagnostics, prevention and therapy during reanimation period of AMI treatment.
