| Description | Regression analysis was used to predict cardiac death in patients after myocardial infarction. Ejection fraction, frequency of the presence of extrasystoles, late potentials, age, heart rate, baroreflex sensitivity and index of heart rate variability were taken into account. Only three last markers were found statistically significant. |
