Key result
Current Takotsubo algorithms insufficiently integrate psychological and psychiatric factors, warranting comprehensive management protocols.
Why the study?
Controversies and unresolved issues remain regarding the psychological, psychiatric, and psychosomatic mechanisms of Takotsubo syndrome, including personality traits, psycho-emotional stress triggers, and subsequent somatogenic mental disorders.
This review highlights that psychological, psychiatric, and psychosomatic aspects of Takotsubo syndrome remain insufficiently integrated into clinical algorithms, underscoring the need for comprehensive protocols addressing both cardiovascular and psycho-emotional factors.

Takotsubo algorithms may overlook psychosomatic factors; leaves open whether integrated protocols improve outcomes.
This review article analyzes the controversies and unresolved issues regarding the psychological, psychiatric, and psychosomatic mechanisms of Takotsubo syndrome. The paper examines the psychological aspects of the syndrome, including patients' personality traits and the role of psycho-emotional stress as a triggering factor. Special attention is paid to potential somatogenic mental disorders that may develop following a cardiovascular event. An analysis of current literature indicates that these aspects of Takotsubo syndrome remain insufficiently integrated into clinical algorithms. The findings underscore the need to develop comprehensive clinical protocols that account for both cardiovascular and psycho-emotional factors in the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of patients with Takotsubo syndrome.
