The relationship between depressive symptoms, health service consumption, and prognosis after acute myocardial infarction: a prospective cohort study

Abstract: Background: The use of cardiovascular health services is greater among patients with depressive symptoms than among patients without. However, the extent to which such associations between depressive symptoms and health service utilization are attributable to variations in comorbidity and prognostic disease severity is unknown. This paper explores the relationship between depressive symptoms, health service cardiovascular consumption, and prognosis following acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

“…Depression in the first months after an ACS predicts recurrent coronary events, mortality from coronary heart disease (CHD), poor quality of life, greater healthcare utilization and failure to return to work (Nicholson et al 2006 ;Bhattacharyya et al 2007 ;Kurdyak et al 2008). These associations are largely independent of markers of disease severity and cardiovascular risk profiles (Kronish et al 2009).…”

Jednako tako, osobe s duševnom bolesti imaju triput veću šansu da dobiju moždani udar 41 . Iz drugoga kuta gledanja, osobe s kardiovaskularnim bolestima imaju mnogo veće šanse za razvoj depresivnog poremećaja 42 .…”

“…In Canada for instance, a woman suffering from depressive disorder is 80% more likely to develop cardiovascular disease than a woman not suffering from depression 40 . Persons with mental illness are also three times more likely to suffer a stroke 41 . Viewed from another angle, persons with cardiovascular diseases have significantly greater chances of developing depressive disorder 42 .…”

“…Patients with post-MI depression have a 1.6-to 2.7-fold increased risk of new cardiac events, cardiac mortality, and all-cause mortality within 24 months. 7 They also have an increased rate of subsequent heart failure, 8 hospital readmissions, 9 and overall increased healthcare resource utilization. 9 There have been several biological mechanisms by which depression may be related to coronary artery disease.…”

“…7 They also have an increased rate of subsequent heart failure, 8 hospital readmissions, 9 and overall increased healthcare resource utilization. 9 There have been several biological mechanisms by which depression may be related to coronary artery disease. As compared with nondepressed patients, those with depression have increased catecholamine levels, 10 elevated resting heart rate, 11 and decreased heart rate variability, 12 all of which suggest increased sympathetic activity.…”
