ABSTRACT
Objective:
To explore the influence of depression on heart rate variability(HRV) and short term prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods:
120 AMI patients were evaluated with Zung's self-rating depression scale within 24 hours after admission.The patients were divided into depressive group(45 cases) and non-depressive group(75 cases) according to depressive index.Post-infarction angina pectoris,reinfarction,heart failure and ventricular fibrillation as well as cardiac death were observed during 4 weeks.HRV analysis with 24-hour holter of survivals was perfomed in 1 week after infarction.Results:
The prevalence of post-infarction angina pectoris,ventricular fibrillation and cardiac death in depressive group was remarkably elevated compared with non-depressive group(40.0% vs 22.7%,20.0% vs 6.7%,17.8% vs 4.0%,respectively. P
