Patients having a cardiovascular disease experience negative states of psychology. An increased incidence of coronary artery disease is attributed to both depression and anxiety.
In this retrospective study, the Hospitalized Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to determine anxiety and depression in stable patients of myocardial infarction (MI) at the time of their discharge. All responses were based on the patients' perceptions two weeks prior to acute MI event. SPSS version 21.0 was used for data entry and analysis.
The mean age of the participants in our study was 49.09±5.61 years. About 52.83% (n=28) and 58.49% (n=31) participants suffered from anxiety and depression two weeks prior to their myocardial infarction.
Depression and anxiety can be a risk factor for myocardial infarction in susceptible individuals. Attention should be given to mental well-being, and a multi-disciplinary management approach should be taken for these patients including psychiatry and psychology.
患有心血管疾病的患者会经历负面心理状态。冠状动脉疾病发病率的增加归因于抑郁和焦虑。
在这项回顾性研究中，使用医院焦虑抑郁量表（HADS）来确定心肌梗死（MI）稳定患者出院时的焦虑和抑郁情况。所有回答均基于患者在急性心肌梗死事件前两周的认知。使用SPSS 21.0版本进行数据录入和分析。
我们研究中参与者的平均年龄为49.09±5.61岁。约52.83%（n = 28）和58.49%（n = 31）的参与者在心肌梗死前两周患有焦虑和抑郁。
抑郁和焦虑可能是易感个体发生心肌梗死的危险因素。应关注心理健康，对这些患者应采取多学科管理方法，包括精神病学和心理学。
