The Impact of Anxiety and Depression on the Rehabilitation Outcomes of Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Unstable Angina

Background. This study explores the impact of anxiety and depressive disorders on the rehabilitation outcomes and long-term prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and unstable angina. The aim is to understand how the initial emotional and psychological states influence recovery trajectories. Materials and methods. A total of 44 patients from the cardiac intensive care unit of PSSPMC were included in this study. They were divided into two groups: one consisting of patients diagnosed with AMI, and the other with unstable angina. AMI diagnosis was based on European clinical guidelines. Psychological assessments were conducted to evaluate anxiety and depression levels, alongside other relevant factors. Results.The findings emphasize the necessity of early detection and intervention for anxiety and depression, alongside an understanding of how psychogenic factors and cerebrovascular insufficiency contribute to the development of these disorders. Timely psychological correction is essential to prevent the worsening of depression and reduce persistent phobic reactions in these patients. Conclusion. The findings emphasize the necessity of early detection and intervention for anxiety and depression, alongside an understanding of how psychogenic factors and cerebrovascular insufficiency contribute to the development of these disorders. Timely psychological correction is essential to prevent the worsening of depression and reduce persistent phobic reactions in these patients.
