An observational study of the occurrence of anxiety, depression and self-reported quality of life 2 years after myocardial infarction
Journal Title: Journal of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: Patients with myocardial infarction (MI) often experience anxiety, depression and poor quality of life (QoL) compared with a normative population. Mood disturbances and QoL have been extensively investigated, but only a few studies have examined the long-term effects of MI on these complex phenomena.
