ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of Deanxit on elderly patients with anxiety and depression symptoms after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods The Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD) were used to evaluate the anxiety and depression symptoms in elderly patients (more than 70 years old) with coronary heart disease after PCI.Thus,80 patients with anxiety and depression after PCI were singled out,they were randomly divided into Deanxit group (n =40,2 Deanxit tablets daily) and control group (n =40,conventional therapy).HAMA and HAMD scores were performed after treatment for 12 weeks.Results HAMA and HAMD scores of the Deanxit group were (10.2 ± 5.7) points,(11.8 ± 6.2) points,which were significantly lower than (17.8 ±5.5)points,(18.3 ±4.3)points in the control group (P =0.012,P =0.020).Conclusion Deanxit can significantly improve the anxiety and depression symptoms in elderly patients after PCI.
