ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
We examined whether anxiety has incremental value to depressive symptoms in predicting health status in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treated in the drug-eluting stent era.METHODS:
A series of consecutive patients (n=692) undergoing PCI as part of the Rapamycin-Eluting Stent Evaluated at Rotterdam Cardiology Hospital registry completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale at 6 months and the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) at 6 and 12 months post-PCI.RESULTS:
Of 692 patients, 471 (68.1%) had no symptoms of anxiety nor depression, 62 (9.0%) had anxiety only, 59 (8.5%) had depressive symptoms only, and 100 (14.5%) had co-occurring symptoms. There was an overall significant improvement in health status between 6 and 12 months post-PCI (P<.001); the interaction effect for time by psychological symptoms was also significant (P=.003). Generally, patients with co-occurring symptoms reported significantly poorer health status compared with the other three groups (Ps <.001). Patients with co-occurring symptomatology were also at greater risk of impaired health status on six of the eight subdomains of the SF-36 compared with the other three symptom groups, adjusting for baseline characteristics and health status at 6 months.CONCLUSION:
Patients with co-occurring symptoms of anxiety and depression reported poorer health status compared with anxious or depressed-only patients and no-symptom patients, showing that anxiety has incremental value to depressive symptoms in identifying PCI patients at risk for impaired health status treated in the drug-eluting stent era.
