Psychological conditions such as depression can have a greater impact on morbidity and mortality outcomes than traditional risk factors for these outcomes. Despite their importance, it is rare for clinicians to assess patients for these conditions and rarer still for them to consistently and adequately manage them. Illumination of the phenomena of comorbid psychological conditions in heart failure may increase awareness of the problem, resulting in improved assessment and management.
诸如抑郁症等心理状况对发病率和死亡率结果的影响可能比这些结果的传统风险因素更大。尽管它们很重要,但临床医生很少评估患者是否存在这些状况,而持续且充分地管理这些状况的情况则更为罕见。阐明心力衰竭中共病心理状况的现象可能会提高对该问题的认识,从而改善评估和管理。
