Ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring and psychological testing were performed in 100 patients with chronic stable myocardial infarction. These patients were divided into four groups according to their chest pain and transient ST-segment depression by Holter monitoring during the follow-up period: group A, 40 patients without complications; group B, 20 patients with silent myocardial ischemia; group C, 14 patients with episodes of chest pain alone; and group D, 26 patients with postinfarction angina. Whereas group B had silent myocardial ischemia and extroversion, groups C and D were characterized by introversion and neuroticism. The frequency of multi-vessel disease was 41% for group A, 53% for group B, 8% for group C and 70% for group D. The patients of group B not only received treatment for coronary artery disease but also behavioral counseling and those of group C received psychotherapy. The results support the view that a combination of Holter monitoring and psychological testing is clinically useful for the development of therapeutic strategies for coronary artery disease.
