The aim of our work was to inquire after frequency and characteristics of repeated myocardial infarction. We questioned prospectively 123 patients, diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction, who were hospitalized in the Coronary unit
of Krusevac Health centre, during the period of 01. 02.- 31. 07. 2001. Repeated myocardial infarction was found in 16,26%
of questioned patients. Non Q acute myocardial infarction was found in 35,00% on patients with repeated myocardial infarction and 8,74% on patients with the first myocardial infarction (p<0,01). In patients with repeated myocardial infarction
more often was found heart failure (55,00% vs 20,39%, p<0,01). Repeated myocardial infarction have difficulty clinical
flow, but have not statistical significantly higher early mortality
