. PATIENTS WITH NORMAL HEARTS WHO THINK THEY

HAVE HEART DISEASE

A physician confided to friend that he has a habit of taking his pulse at frequent intervals. His daughter. observing this. remarked, "so you're 9. cardiac neurone." she meant that he imagined that he had some heart disturbance, as a matter of fact. he was interested in his heart rate only and how it fluct- uated from slow to rapid during the time he was counting the heart rate.

lative telephoning him to get the name of a. good heart specialist. He suggested one, and a. few days later the heart specialist called him and lndignantly asked why he had sent the patient ior heart examiii- ation when her heart was normal The specialist told him he had no right to refer a case to him unless he had examined the patients heart himself.

That many patients are referred to heart specialists with a diagno- sis of "something wrong" with their heart when the heart is normal is reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association by Drs. Leonard J. Goldwater, Lewis H. Bronstein and Beatrice Kresky, New York. The title of their art- icle is "study of one Hundred and

Seventy-Five Cardiacs Without Heart Disease." .

"Patients referred to the Work Classification Unit are examin-3 ed in accordance with standardsi developed by the New York Heart Association, consisting of a complete cardiological (heart) study based on accepted criteria (information re- garding the heart). All questionable. cases are examined by two or more. heart specialists. All persons seen at the unit were referred because of employment. difficulties attrih-l uted to heart disease." the doctors report.

Of the 831 who were adequate- ly studied. 175 (about 28 per cenii were found to have no heart disease at all.

what happens to a patient who has been told that there is some- thing wrong with his heart. or if he thinks he has something wrong with his heart despite his physic- ian's assurance that there is noth- ing wrong with his heart?

In this series of cases. a great percentage began to live the life of an invalid physically. remaining in bed a great part of the time. Even when on their feet. they a-. voided all forms of work. even light work. Advice given and followed included no lifting. R sit-down job only, no stair climbing, change occupation. no exercises. I

Many of these non-cardiac pat- ients, young men who might have. been gainfully employed, were advised to restrict or cut down on their activities)

The lesson for patients is that. if advised by a general practitioner that they have heart disease and to "take it easy." they ask their phy- sicians to refer them to a heart specialist or heart: clinic. They have or have not heart disease. and should know the truth.
