Lifelong rehabilitation of patients with cardiovascular diseases prolonges life and improves its quality. The quality of life of members of theIstra Coronary Club was assessed by a standardised EQ-5D health survey. Survey results were compared with data for the general population of Slovenia.Statistically significant differences in the average level of reported health problems were found between the two populations studied : members of the Istra Coronary Club reported more problems on all EQ-5D health dimensions. On the basis of further analysis, these differences were attributed to the difference in the average age between both populations. After excluding the effect of age, the difference in quality of life between the two populations studied was statistically insignificant on all EQ-5D health dimensions, except self-careSrčnožilne bolezni so najpogostejši vzrok smrtnosti in obolevnosti v svetu. Doživljenjska rehabilitacija bolnikov s srčnožilnimi boleznimi dokazano podaljša življenje in izboljša kakovost življenja. V članku smo ocenili kakovost življenja članov Koronarnega društva Slovenske Istre s pomočjo standardiziranega vprašalnika EQ-5D. Primerjali smo tako ocenjeno kakovost življenja članov društva s kakovostjo življenja splošne populacije v Sloveniji. Študija je pokazala, da je razlika v povprečni stopnji težav med obema populacijama statistično značilna, kar pomeni, da imajo člani Koronarnega društva Istra v povprečju na vseh razsežnostih EQ-5D hujše težave od splošne populacije. Nadaljnja analiza je pokazala, da so te razlike posledica višje povprečne starosti članov Koronarnega društva Istra. Po izločitvi vpliva povprečne starosti pa razlike v kakovosti življenja med obemapopulacijama niso značilne, razen pri skrbi zaseTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInštitut za varovanje zdravja RS
