The aim of the study was to analyse the relationship between the Readiness for Hospital Discharge after Myocardial Infarction Scale (RHD MIS) scores and socio-demographic and clinical factors in patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treated with percutaneous coronary angioplasty. Material and methods: The study was conducted as a single-centre, prospective, cohort, 6-month observa-tion, including 213 patients: 59 women and 154 men aged 30–91 years (average age of 62,91 ± 11.26 years). Results: Patients’ economic status was found to have a significant impact on the readiness for discharge measured by RHD-MIS general score. Among all three investigated RHD-MIS subscales, objective assessment of knowledge was influenced by gender (p = 0.012) and place of residence (p = 0.025). There was a linear trend for increase of knowledge along with increase in education level (p = 0.030). The only factor influencing patients’ expectations was their economic status (p value for heterogeneity: 0.014). A linear correlation between growing of patients’ expectations and worsening of their economic status (p = 0.008) was observed. Conclusion: Readiness to discharge should be routinely assessed in all patients hospitalized with myo-cardial infarction. The result of this assessment should be used to identify patients requiring additional education. Further research is prompted to determine the cut-off values of RHD-MIS results qualifying patients for additional educational interventions.
