Objectives: The SYNergy between percutaneous coronary interventions with TAXUS and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score is a quantitative scoring system used to evaluate the severity and extent of the disease in patients with coronary artery disease. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is a scale that measures the anxiety and depression levels of patients. The relationship between psychosocial stress and atherosclerosis is well known. In this study, we aimed to examine the relationship between SYNTAX score and HADS in patients who performed percutaneous coronary intervention due to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: A total of 130 subjects with ACS were included in our study. The SYNTAX score, which was calculated by two independent interventional cardiologists, was divided into three groups: 0–22, low; 23–32, moderate; 33 and above, high. In our study, patients’ anxiety and depression levels were evaluated with HADS 1 month after ACS. Results: Of the total subjects, 68, 39, and 23 patients were determined in SYNTAX scores of 0–22, 23–32, and >33 groups, respectively. A significant relationship was observed between the high SYNTAX score and the HADS-depression and anxiety scale (p<0.001, p<0.001, respectively). In the correlation analysis found that, a moderate positive correlation between the SYNTAX score and depression level, and a weak positive correlation between the SYNTAX and anxiety level (r=0.642, r=0.538, respectively). Conclusion: In our study, we found that HADS and SYNTAX scores were significantly correlated in ACS patients who performed percutaneous coronary intervention.
