A controlled study of early discharge after uncomplicated myocardial infarction . Out of 383 myocardial infarction ( MI ) patients aged below 70 years , 252 ( 66 % ) were judged after the third day in hospital to have had uncomplicated infarctions . These patients were allocated at random to two groups , one of which was given treatment for 8 days and the other for 15 days . No significant differences in mortality , morbidity or incapacity for work could be detected during the three-month period of follow-up . The findings thus support previous conclusions that early discharge from hospital after uncomplicated MI is not associated with greater risk for the patient than later discharge .
