Was analysed the predictive capability of course of myocardial infarction in the level of cortisol in saliva. Patients included in the study were divided into two groups according to disease outcome. Cortisol analysis was performed twice: at admission and on the third day of the disease. Cortisol levels in the first day of the disease were comparable, but opposite changes on the third day results statistically significant intergroup differences. The first day of myocardial infarction with segment ST elevation concentration of cortisol in saliva of patients significantly increased. The majority of patients who survive the concentration of cortisol in saliva of the third day is reduced to normal levels and in patients who died during hospitalization on the other hand increases. Thus, reducing cortisol in saliva indicates a high probability of a favourable outcomes.
