Abstract: Modern epidemiological studies confirm that comorbid diseases and conditions can have significant impact on diagnostic and treatment of the underlying disease. The problem of the comorbidy of stable coronary heart disease (SCHD) and metabolic syndrome (MS) has high medical and social significance, need high costs for diagnosis and treatment, and leads to decreased of quality of life (QOL). QOL is an important indicator of the health status of patients, which comprehensively characterizes human physical, psychological, emotional and social functioning. The objective: to conduct a comparative analysis of the QOL of patients with combination of SCAD and MS versus patients with isolated SCHD. Materials and methods. The study included 102 patients: 52 people with MS in combination with SCAD and 50 patients with SCHD only. There were 42 (51.2%) men (mean age 49.8 ± 5.3 years), and 40 (48.8%) women (mean age 51.6 ± 6.7 years). The QoL score was assessed by general medical questionnaire – the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item (SF-36), in which all scales form two indicators: mental and physical health and a specialized questionnaire for patient with stable angina pectoris – SAQ (Seattle Angina Questionnaire). The diagnosis of SCHD with functional class (FC) assessment was performed by European Society of Cardiology criteria. MS was established if three out of five diagnostic criteria were met. Results. Patients with comorbid MS and SCHD demonstrated significantly lower QoL scores, both in psychological and physical components of health (according to the SF-36 questionnaire) compared to patients with SCHD alone (p <0.05). An analysis of the SAQ questionnaire data also showed significantly lower points in group of patients with NAS and SCHD combination compared to the group of patients with isolated SCHD (in total, by 8.76%; p <0.05). Conclusion. Patients with metabolic syndrome in combination with stable coronary heart disease (SCHD) had a statistically significantly lower level of quality of life according to the evaluation by both SF-36 nonspecific questionnaire and the SAQ specific questionnaire comparing to group of patients with isolated SCAD.
