Two-year follow-up status of emergency department patients with chest pain: Was it panic disorder?

Abstract: Objectives:We previously reported that 25% (108/441) of consecutive patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) of the Montreal Heart Institute with a chief complaint of chest pain suffered from panic disorder (PD). The purpose of the present study was to re-examine these patients (with and without PD) 2 years after their initial ED visit to determine their psychiatric and psychosocial status. Methods: An interviewer, who was kept blind to patients' initial medical and psychiatric diagnoses, attempted… Show more

“…In summary, the present results in NET A457P mice support the contention that NET dysfunction can produce the POTS phenotype as well as behavioral comorbidities reported in POTS (Barton et al, 2007; Fleet et al, 2003; McCrank et al, 1998; Musselman et al, 1998; Raj et al, 2009). Coupled with the emerging evidence for a more widespread incidence of NET deficiency in POTS, our studies argue for our model as an important tool for the assessment of NET-derived plasticities in heart and brain that contribute to patient phenotypes and might provide a path to the development of improved therapeutics.…”

“…Patients with anxiety complain of heart palpitations and patients with tachycardia disorders have a higher incidence of anxiety (Fleet et al, 2003; McCrank et al, 1998). Activation of the SNS has been associated with depression and patients with major depression are at an increased risk for heart disease (Musselman et al, 1998).…”

“…28 29 UCP is also associated with significant psychological distress that can become chronic in the absence of targeted interventions. [30][31][32] In fact, 20-40% of patients present a psychiatric disorder at the time of ED consultation 3 6 33-35 and 15% report suicidal ideation. 3 33 34 36 Unfortunately, fewer than 5% of patients are referred to a mental health professional for psychiatric or psychological treatment.…”

“…More than half of individuals who consult for chest pain are diagnosed with noncardiac chest pain (NCCP; Eslick and Talley, 2008;Kontos and Jesse, 2000). Despite receiving this diagnosis and a favorable prognosis, most individuals with NCCP continue to experience chest pain; to fear the development of a heart disease; to seek medical care; and to experience social, occupational, and functional impairment (Dammen et al, 2008;Fleet et al, 2003;Gárcia-Campayo et al, 2010;Leise et al, 2010).…”
