22 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) under went early exercise testing (EET)(mean 12.50±4.39 days after MI) in our study. The positive rate of testing was 45.45%. The maximal ratepressure product (SBP×HR) and peak metabolic equivalent were 2782±776 bpm.kPa and 4.96 ±1.20METs. Following up 3 months to 2.5 years (1.33±0.84 years), we found that the occurrence of heart events in the positive EET group (EET-P) was more than in the negative EET group (EET-N) (X2=4.77, P<0.05).Time of return to work and housework in EET-P was earlier than EET-N. About time and ratio of return to work and housework, the EET group was higher and earlier than no EET(N-EET) group. On the other hand,sexual activity of EET was recovered to a certain degree and ma jority could do some physical training- The results would be showed that EET could improve the quality of life in the patients with AMI.
