“…Of the 407 patients under study, 37 (9.1%), 72 (17.7%), and 298 (73.2%) of the patients had mild, moderate, and severe depression levels, respectively. These results were consistent with the findings of similar studies 24,28,29 . Moraska et al 30 studied patients with CVDs admitted to the emergency unit using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and reported that 15% of patients had major depression and 26% had mild depression.…”

“…The validity of the CDS was assessed and confirmed through content validity. The reliability of the instrument was confirmed by a study on heart diseases in Australia with Cronbach's alpha of 0.90; moreover, a 0.73 relationship with the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was reported in this population 24 . In this study, the internal consistency of the questionnaire was calculated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient (α = 0.73).…”

Cardiac depression is one of the most common psychological reactions of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aimed to determine the prevalence of cardiac depression and its related factors among patients with ACS. This cross-sectional study was conducted during 2016 in patients with ACS who were admitted to hospitals affiliated to the Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Iran. In the present study, 407 patients completed the Cardiac Depression Scale (CDS) within two months (March -June). The data were analyzed by a chi-square test and a general linear model multivariate analysis. According to the results, the mean cardiac depression score in patients with ACS was 109.00 ± 16.49 (CI95: 107.39 to 110.60). Among the participants, 37 (9.1%), 72 (17.7%), and 298 (73.2%) patients had mild, moderate, and severe levels of depression, respectively. Although the two-way ANOVA was not significant, but there was a difference between cardiac depression score of a type of ACS. Given the high prevalence of cardiac depression among these patients, it is necessary to develop measures for routine screening in cardiac treatment units.

“…Similar findings have been reported when comparing the CDS with the BDI (Birks et al, 2004;Di Benedetto et al, 2006;Gholizadeh et al, 2010;Hare and Davis, 1996). This can be explained by the fact that the CDS was originally developed to assess "adjustment disorder with depressed mood" rather than major depressive disorder (Hare and Davis, 1996).…”

“…Furthermore, they may not be sensitive enough to detect minor depression, which is clinically significant (Bush et al, 2001;Catipovic-Veselica et al, 2007;Lossnitzer et al, 2013). The BDI-II, for example, has a positively skewed distribution of scores which results in low scores clustering and poor differentiation (Di Benedetto et al, 2006). It is clear that generic scales have significant limitations in assessing depression and depressive symptoms in patients with heart disease (Vieweg et al, 2011).…”

Background: The Cardiac Depression Scale (CDS) has been designed to measure depressive symptoms in patients with heart disease. There is no Arabic version of the CDS. We translated and validated the CDS in an Arabic sample of patients with heart disease. Methods: Forward and back translation of the CDS was followed by assessment of cultural relevance and content validity. The Arabic version of the CDS (A-CDS) and the Arabic version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (A-HADS) were then administered to 260 Arab in-patients with heart disease from 18 Arabic countries. Construct validity was assessed using exploratory factor analysis with polychoric correlations. Internal consistency was assessed using ordinal reliability alpha and item-to-factor polychoric correlations. Concurrent validity was assessed using Pearson's correlation coefficient between the A-CDS and the depression subscale of the A-HADS (A-HADS-D).Results: Cultural relevance and content validity of the A-CDS were satisfactory. Exploratory factor analysis revealed three robust factors, without cross-loadings, that formed a single dimension. Internal consistency was high (ordinal reliability alpha for the total scale and the three factors were .94, .91, .86, and .87, respectively; item-to-factor correlations ranged from .77 to .91). Concurrent validity was high (r = .72). The A-CDS demonstrated a closer to normal distribution of scores than the A-HADS-D. Limitations: Sensitivity and specificity of the A-CDS were not objectively assessed. Conclusions: The A-CDS appears to be a valid and reliable instrument to measure depressive symptoms in a representative sample of Arab in-patients with heart disease.Keywords: Arabic; Cardiac Depression Scale; cultural relevance; depression; heart disease; scale validation Highlights• We translated and validated the Cardiac Depression Scale to Arabic.• Cultural relevance and content validity were satisfactory.• A stable, parsimonious, and meaningful three-factor model was created.• Internal consistency and concurrent validity were high.• The translated scale appears to be a valid and reliable instrument.
