“…Their study [36] also suggests that HADS scores increase with age, although we did not find that association in our sample. Mean depression scores are consistent with previous work involving AF patients with patient-activated atrial defibrillators [37] and post-MI patients [19,38,39] but were somewhat lower than scores reported by patients with implantable defibrillators [40].…”

“…14 The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is often used to assess anxiety and depression. [16][17][18][19] It is based on 14 items, each related to subscales designed to capture both anxiety (HADS-A, seven items) and depression (HADS-D, seven items). All items have four response categories (0 ¼ not at all, to 3 ¼ very often indeed).…”
