Aim: To develop a procedure for assessing the adequacy of metoprolol use in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) on the basis of synchronization of 0.1-Hz rhythms in cardiac rhythm variability (CRV) and vascular blood filling in the microcirculatory bed (MCB). Materials and methods.

For the cases of spontaneous respiration and paced respiration with a fixed frequency, the synchronization between the rhythms of the cardiovascular system was investigated based on the analysis of only the time series of R-R intervals.

Methods And Results: Efficacy of prognostication made by a physician and by a model was compared basing on probabilistic estimates with consideration of individual level of risk. Nineteen clinical and instrumental parameters were entered into multifactorial analysis.
