[The clinico-functional assessment and work capacity of patients undergoing repeated operations on the mitral valve].

: A complex of examinations (ECG, echocardiographic and X-ray evaluations of heart volumes and cavities, treadmill-test) was performed in 82 patients before and after reoperations on the mitral valve. The type of recorrection was found to be associated with the degree of positive dynamics of the results. The data obtained contradicted to hyperdiagnoses of primary medical-labor examination commission establishing the II group of invalidism in 86 +/- 4% (M +/- m) of the examined patients. As a result of an analysis of all the data obtained the number of such patients was reduced up to 34 +/- 5%. A new approach to solving the problem of medical-labor examination was shown to be necessary for patients reoperated for mitral disease of the heart.
