INFLUENCE OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS ON THE FIVE-YEAR SURVIVAL OF PATIENTS
. The study evaluated the survival of patients with cardiovascular diseases. The work included 271 patients: 222 were engaged in the hospital School of Health (supervision group) and 39 (control group) did not attend classes. At the time of inclusion groups were comparable in cardiopathology. But the patients of the observation group who died within 5 years were older, had a longer period of cardiovascular diseases and severe chronic heart failure than in the control group died. In the first 2 years the number of emergency calls and hospitalizations of the patients in the control group who died in this period was higher than in those who died in the observation group. After 5 years the total mortality and cardiovascular mortality were higher in the control group, where all 11 patients died of cardiac pathology - 28.2 %. In the observation group the overall mortality was 7.58 %, and cardiovascular - 6.68 %.
