Health status and mental health in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention.

OBJECTIVE: to assess the association between perceived health status and the mental health of patients submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention after hospital discharge. METHOD: a quantitative and cross-sectional study involving 101 participants. The following instruments were used: a sociodemographic and clinical characterization instrument, the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Participants were divided into three groups: no anxiety and no depression (G1); anxiety or depression (G2); and both (G3). The ANOVA test was used for the intergroup comparison of means on the SF-36 domains. RESULTS: There was an association between perceived health status and mental health. The participants in G1 presented higher scores in all SF-36 domains in comparison with participants in G2 and G3. CONCLUSION: Participants with no anxiety and depression presented better-perceived health status in comparison with those with anxiety or depression, or both.

RESUMOObjetivo:avaliar a associação entre o estado de saúde percebido e a saúde mental de pacientes submetidos à intervenção coronária percutânea, após a alta hospitalar.Método:estudo quantitativo, transversal, com 101 participantes. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: caracterização sociodemográfica e clínica, Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF- 36) e Escala Hospitalar de Ansiedade e Depressão (HADS). Os participantes foram divididos em três grupos: sem ansiedade e sem depressão (G1), com ansiedade ou depressão (G2) e com ambos (G3). Para comparação das médias dos domínios do SF-36 entre os grupos, foi utilizado o teste ANOVA.Resultados:houve associação entre o estado de saúde percebido e a saúde mental. Participantes pertencentes ao G1 apresentaram maiores escores em todos os domínios do SF-36 quando comparado àqueles pertencentes ao G2 e G3.Conclusão:participantes sem ansiedade e depressão apresentaram melhor estado de saúde percebido que aqueles com ansiedade ou depressão, ou ambos.

RESUMENObjetivo:evaluar la asociación entre el estado de salud percibido y la salud mental de pacientes sometidos a intervención coronaria percutánea tras el alta.Método:estudio cuantitativo, transversal, con 101 participantes. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron: instrumento de caracterización sociodemográfica y clínica, Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Surrvey(SF-36) y Escala Hospitalaria de Ansiedad y Depresión (HADS). Los participantes fueron divididos en tres grupos: sin ansiedad y sin depresión (G1), con ansiedad o con depresión (G2) y con ambos (G3). Para comparar los promedios de los dominios del SF-36 entre los grupos, fue utilizado el test ANOVA.Resultados:hubo asociación entre el estado de salud percibido y salud mental. Los participantes en G1 revelaron mayores escores en todos los dominios del SF-36 en comparación con aquellos en G2 y G3.Conclusión:los participantes sin ansiedad y sin depresión presentaron mejor estado de salud percibido en comparación con aquellos con ansiedad o con depresión, o con ambos.

[Perceived health status and pharmacological adherence of patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention]. / Estado de saúde percebido e adesão farmacológica em pacientes submetidos à intervenção coronária percutânea.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the perceived health status and pharmacological adherence, and to verify the correlation between these measures in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention, after hospital discharge. It was a cross-sectional study carried out from May 2011 to July 2012. The instruments used were: SF-86 and Measurement of Adherence to Treatment, with 101 patients, 54 (53.5%) of which were men; average age of 59.5 +/- 10.3; and 32 (32.7%) with previous cardiac treatment. All study participants were using antihypertensive drugs; the majority 99 (98%) used antiplatelet drugs; 98 (97%) used cholesterol reducers, and 59 (58.4%) used coronary vasodilators. The average number of drugs used was 6.8 +/- 2.1. Pharmacological adherence was observed in 98 (97%) patients. The participants presented best perceived health status in Social Functioning and Physical Functioning. Positive correlations of moderate magnitude were found between measurements of pharmacological adherence and Physical Functioning, General Health and Social Functioning. There was correlation between pharmacological adherence and perceived health status.

Estado de saúde percebido e adesão farmacológica em pacientes submetidos à intervenção coronária percutânea / Estado de salud percibido y la adhesión farmacológica en pacientes sometidos a intervención coronaria percutánea / Perceived health status and pharmacological adherence of patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention

Os objetivos foram avaliar o estado de saúde percebido e a adesão farmacológica, e verificar a correlação entre essas medidas em pacientes submetidos à intervenção coronária percutânea, após alta hospitalar. Trata-se de estudo transversal realizado no período de maio de 2011 a julho de 2012. Utilizaram-se os instrumentos SF-36 e Medida de Adesão aos Tratamentos, com 101 pacientes. Destes, 54 (53,5%) eram homens, a idade média era 59,5±10,3 e 32 (32,7%) haviam passado por tratamento cardíaco prévio. Todos utilizavam medicamentos anti-hipertensivos; 99 (98%) utilizavam antiagregantes plaquetários; 98 (97%), redutores de colesterol e 59 (58,4%), vasodilatadores coronarianos. A média do número de medicamentos utilizados foi 6,8±2,1. A adesão farmacológica foi verificada em 98 (97%) pacientes. Os participantes apresentaram melhor estado de saúde nos componentes "Aspectos sociais" e "Capacidade funcional". Constataram-se correlações positivas e de moderada magnitude entre as medidas de adesão e "Capacidade funcional", "Estado geral de saúde" e "Aspectos sociais". Houve correlação entre adesão farmacológica e estado de saúde percebido.
