“…One recent study reported that after controlling for cardiac risk factors and symptoms of depression, mortality was not related to the SF-36 PCS, the SF-36 MCS, or the clinical summary score of the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. The authors attributed this finding to the robust prognostic power of the New York Heart Association functional class variable, although it is possible that relatively small sample size was also a factor (N=23 1) [16].…”

“…Two studies of heart failure patients included symptoms of depression as a covariate, however, and both found that health status no longer predicted survival after controlling for depressive symptoms [16,17]. This is important because many studies have reported that depression is a significant predictor of mortality among patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) [18][19][20].…”

Objective: Self-report measures of health status predict mortality in several groups of patients with cardiovascular disease, although overlap with symptoms of depression may reduce or eliminate this relationship. The association between self-reported health status and mortality has not been examined in patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The objective was to investigate whether the Physical Component Summary (PCS) and Mental Component Summary (MCS) scores of the SF-12 predicted 12-month all-cause mortality after controlling for cardiac risk factors and symptoms of depression. Methods: The SF-12 and Beck Depression Inventory were administered 2-5 days after admission to 800 ACS patients from 12 coronary care units. Logistic regression was used to assess the relationship of the PCS and MCS with mortality 12 months later, controlling for age, sex,

“…However, in studies conducted by Arendarczyk and Łoboz-Grudzień it was found that the quality of life of patients after myocardial infarction declines with patients' increasing age [21]. In the analysis by German researchers in a group of patients with symptoms of chronic stable heart failure the lowest values related to the quality of life indicators included in total physical health (PCS), and in particular restrictions on the roles played because of physical health and general health perception [22,23]. Similar results were obtained by authors in a British survey: the lowest level of the quality of life was observed in the indicators associated with total physical health, and the absolute values were almost twice lower than the standards for the British population [23,24].…”

The aim of the study was to analyse an effect of selected socio-demographic and medical factors on the quality of life of patients after myocardial infarction. Material/MethodsThe study group consisted of 80 people, aged from 41 to 85, treated for myocardial infarction in medical entities in Mława (Poland) in the first half of 2014. The study used the SF-36v2 questionnaire. ResultsIn analysis of the quality of life, the value of the mean domain of physical health was 52.6 ±11.35, whereas in the domain of mental health, it was substantially lower, i.e. 37.6 ±5.60. It was found that sex (p = 0.03), age (p = 0.0006), education (p = 0.003), recognized disability (p = 0.0001), and support from the family and friends (p = 0.01) have a significant effect on the quality of life in the physical domain. Such variables as: age (p = 0.006), education (p = 0.03), duration of illness (p = 0.03), undergoing check-ups (p = 0.001), blood pressure control (p = 0.00001), received support from the family and friends (p = 0.0005) significantly determine the level of the quality of life with respect to mental health. ConclusionsA lower quality of patients' life is observed in the psychological domain than in the physical one. Quality of life is a multi-dimensional concept variously interpreted by many researchers. On the basis of medicine, researchers attempt to unify the concept in this field of science in the form of "the quality of life conditioned by the state of health" -HRQoL. It is defined as a "functional effects of the disease and its treatment received (experienced) by the patient" [1, 2]. "Quality of life conditioned by the state of health" implies that a sense of health is one of the basic factors of the quality of life [2, 3, 4]. It covers four areas: physical and motor skills, mental state, social and economic conditions, somatic sensations [1, 2]. As indicated by Siegrist, research on the quality of life in medicine primarily shows the patient's point of view, which may differ from the one presented by clinicians, as they are a source of important information that could play a significant role in making therapeutic decisions, and importantly -call for patient care outside hospital [5,6]. Many researchers indicate that expectations faced by modern medicine concern not only treatments or a possibility to extend patients' lives, but also an improvement in the multifactorial aspects of the quality of life dependent on health [7]. The quality of life of people with various diseases of the cardiovascular system is as important as the resu...

De façon sommaire, ces études font ressortir que plusieurs sphères de la qualité de vie reliée à la santé subissent des dommages importants et que l'anxiété et la dépression sont associées négativement à la qualité de vie reliée à la santé chez les patients coronariens.…”

pour le modèle 1 et de 0,053 pour le modèle 2) (le soutien aux deux besoins et la motivation spécifique à ces deux comportements de santé expliquant ensemble 25,4 % de la variance de la santé psychologique). Enfin, les résultats n'ont pas permis d'établir que le soutien au besoin d'autonomie par la famille a un plus grand impact sur la motivation autodéterminée spécifique à l'activité physique et à l'alimentation saine des patients coronariens que le soutien au besoin de compétence par la famille (le coefficient de prédiction standardisé associé au soutien de compétence étant de 0,28 pour la motivation à l'activité physique et de 0,31 pour la motivation à l'alimentation saine et le coefficient de prédiction standardisé associé au soutien à l'autonomie étant de 0,20 pour la motivation à l'activité physique et de 0,22 pour la motivation à l'alimentation saine).La recherche actuelle, en plus d'offrir un appui empirique quant à la présence de relations entre certaines variables explorées par la TAD et la santé psychologique, permet d'apporter de nouvelles connaissances et ainsi d'améliorer notre compréhension de la santé psychologique de patients coronariens. Cette meilleure compréhension contribue à la diffusion de recommandations quant aux plans de réhabilitation de ces patients. Table des matièresSommaire ii femmes, ce qui représente le tiers du nombre total de tous les décès. Les MCV constituent la catégorie de maladie qui est la plus coûteuse sur le plan économique pour le système de santé québécois (Daigle, 2006). À ces égards, les MCV constituent donc un intérêt majeur pour la population, les professionnels et les chercheurs du domaine de la santé. Afin d'aider les patients à modifier leurs habitudes de vie et ainsi adopter des comportements de santé, les recherches dans le domaine de la santé ont en outre étudié la motivation de diverses populations. Deci et Ryan (1985 proposent une théorie de la motivation humaine, la théorie de l'autodétermination (TAD), laquelle permet de mieux comprendre les processus sous-jacents à la motivation autodéterminée spécifique à l'adoption de comportements de santé. Par l'entremise de ses nombreuses recherches appuyant empiriquement ses principes fondamentaux, la TAD a notamment démontré dans le domaine de la santé que lorsque les besoins d'autonomie, de compétence et d'affiliation sociale sont soutenus par le personnel soignant, cela amène une motivation autodéterminée spécifique à des comportements de santé ainsi qu'un maintien de ces mêmes comportements chez les patients, d'où en résultent des effets positifs sur leur santé physique et mentale (Sheldon, Williams, & Joiner, 2003).La présente étude vise à vérifier les liens unissant le soutien par la famille à deux besoins identifiés par la TAD (autonomie et compétence), la motivation autodéterminée spécifique à l'activité physique et à l'alimentation saine et la santé psychologique chez une population coronarienne du Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean (SLSJ). Aucune étude ne s'est intéressée aux relations entre le soutien à ces besoi...
