Cardiac depression is one of the most common psychological reactions of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aimed to determine the prevalence of cardiac depression and its related factors among patients with ACS. This cross-sectional study was conducted during 2016 in patients with ACS who were admitted to hospitals affiliated to the Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Iran. In the present study, 407 patients completed the Cardiac Depression Scale (CDS) within two months (March - June). The data were analyzed by a chi-square test and a general linear model multivariate analysis. According to the results, the mean cardiac depression score in patients with ACS was 109.00 ± 16.49 (CI95: 107.39 to 110.60). Among the participants, 37 (9.1%), 72 (17.7%), and 298 (73.2%) patients had mild, moderate, and severe levels of depression, respectively. Although the two-way ANOVA was not significant, but there was a difference between cardiac depression score of a type of ACS. Given the high prevalence of cardiac depression among these patients, it is necessary to develop measures for routine screening in cardiac treatment units.

Abstract Background Depression is common in patients following an Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) substantially increases the risk of future events and mortality. Post-ACS depression typically resembles one of four longitudinal trajectories: chronic; absent; recovered, or delayed depression. Early identification of a patient's post-ACS depression trajectory will improve risk stratification, treatment implementation and risk management. Purpose To explore whether stable psychosocial traits, such as resilience, predict the trajectory of depression one month and 6 months following an ACS admission. Method Consecutive adult ACS patients (STEMI/NSTEMI) admitted to a large general hospital completed the Cardiac Depression Scale (CDS) and the Sense of Coherence scale during their admission, then one and six months following discharge. Results 132 ACS in-patients (males = 111; mean age = 63.13±13.47) satisfied enrolment criteria. Unconditional linear latent growth modelling identified a 3-class model for the trajectory of depression post-ACS (increasing depression; consistent non-depressed; decreasing non-depressed). For the increasing depression class, resilience at baseline was significant and negative compared to the consistent class, b=−0.06, Wald chi square (1) = 4.42, p=0.036 and the decreasing class, b=−0.09, Wald chi square (1) = 7.20, p=0.007. Conclusions Patients who reported lower levels of resilience during an ACS admission were significantly more likely to experience initially high levels of depressive symptoms (CDS ≥85) that exceeded the clinically relevant cut-off (CDS ≥95) at 6 months post-discharge. This study suggests that screening for resilience and depression will improve risk stratification for persistent and delayed depression post-ACS.
