This is the report about 265 patients with recent transmural myocardial infarction. In the first week of hospital treatment 63 died. From the remaining 201 patients 101 fulfilled the conditions for early mobilisation of the WHO. In a controlled study these patients were divided in 2 groups: group 1 started the programme of early mobilisation the 7th day and group 2 was the control group which was mobilized after 3 weeks of bed rest. The 2 groups were comparable in the clinical course and had 2% of letality. The remaining 100 patients with conditions against early mobilisation were conservatively treated with 3 weeks of bed rest. The letality in this group was very high with 23%.
