ABSTRACT
Background/

objective:

The aim of this study was to examine the role of vital exhaustion in predicting the recurrence of vascular events.

Method:

The sample comprised of 816 individuals (65.3% female, Mage = 43.2 years, SD = 14.7 years), 395 (48.4%) of whom reported treatment for the reoccurrence of a vascular event during the four-year follow-up period. Concurrent effects of baseline vital exhaustion (measured by a shortened version of the Maastricht Questionnaire), depression (assessed by a shortened version of the BDI), anxiety (assessed by the HADS), and hostility (assessed by a shortened version of the Cook-Medley Hostility Scale) in predicting the recurrence of T2 vascular events were examined. The analyses were also controlled for traditional risk factors, such as age, education, body mass index, smoking, alcohol use, and lack of physical activity.

Results:

The regression analyses showed that vital exhaustion scores significantly predicted the reoccurrence of vascular events even after controlling for all covariates. None of the other psychological predictors (depression, anxiety, and hostility) was significant in the final model.

Conclusions:

These results suggest that despite the partial conceptual overlap with several similar constructs, vital exhaustion is a distinct phenomenon that deserves consideration when planning and implementing interventions to reduce the risk of vascular diseases
RESUMEN
Antecedentes/

objetivo:

El objetivo de este estudio fue examinar el papel del agotamiento vital en la predicción de la recurrencia de eventos vasculares.

Método:

La muestra estaba compuesta por 816 sujetos (65,3% mujeres, Medad = 43,20 años; DT = 14,70 años), 395 (48,40%) de los cuales tuvieron tratamiento para la reincidencia de evento vascular durante los cuatro años de seguimiento. Se examinaron los efectos concurrentes del agotamiento vital inicial (medido por una versión abreviada del Maastricht Questionnaire), depresión (evaluada por una versión abreviada del BDI), ansiedad (evaluada por el HADS) y hostilidad (evaluada por una versión reducida de la Cook-Medley Hostility Scale) en la predicción de la recurrencia de eventos vasculares T2. Los análisis también fueron controlados por factores de riesgo (edad, educación, índice de masa corporal, tabaquismo, consumo de alcohol y falta de actividad física).

Resultados:

Las puntuaciones de agotamiento vital predijeron la recurrencia de eventos vasculares, incluso después de controlar todas las covariables. Ninguno de los otros predictores psicológicos fue significativo en el modelo final.

Conclusiones:

A pesar de la superposición conceptual parcial con varios constructos similares, el agotamiento vital es un fenómeno distinto que merece ser considerado al planificar e implementar intervenciones para reducir el riesgo de enfermedades vasculares
