Key result
Among 210 CABG candidate patients, the prevalence of anxiety, depression, and stress symptoms was 38.6%, 38.6%, and 41.0%, respectively.
Why the study?
Postsurgical hospitalization after CABG cannot be fully explained by medical and demographic factors, making psychological factors important to evaluate.
Cross-Sectional (n=210)
No
There is a high prevalence of anxiety, depression, and stress among CABG candidate patients, suggesting a need for routine pre-operative psychological evaluation.
Preoperative mental health screening may be warranted in CABG candidates; leaves open impact on hospitalization.
Background and Objective: Introduction: Among the heart diseases, coronary heart disease (CAD) is the leading cause of mortality in human societies and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is the most common therapeutic intervention. Postsurgical hospitalization is an estimate of the success rate of surgery that cannot be fully explained by medical and demographic factors. Rather, psychological factors are important. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of anxiety, depression and stress which are one of the most important psychological factors related to the length of hospital stay after this surgery.
