Description
Summary:Objective: to identify the infl uence of depression in patients with coronary heart disease myocardial infarction after myocardial revascularization on sympathoadrenal system. Material and Methods: 95 patients with coronary artery disease after surgery – revascularization were included into the study. The presence of depressive state was found in 56 patients, 39 patients were free of depression. In addition to a thorough clinical examination, all patients with postinfarction cardiosclerosis undergone echocardiography of the heart (echocardiography), ambulatory Holter ECG monitoring (ECG HM), and carried out tests on the scale of the HADS, Beck to determine the mental state at the moment, as well as testing on the scale of quality of life SF-36. Results and discussion: it is known that patients with depression observed hyperactivation of the sympathoadrenal system (SAS), increased levels of circulating plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine, resulting in a relative tachycardia, increased myocardial oxygen consumption, to changes in the hemostatic system and along with hypercortisolemic to hypertension. In addition, it was shown that over-activation of the sympathoadrenal system can lead to severe systolic left ventricular dysfunction even in patients without coronary artery disease. Conclusions: Identifi cation of catecholamine levels in patients with coronary artery disease and postinfarction cardiosclerosis after myocardial revascularization is an important diagnostic criterion for the activation of the sympathoadrenal system. Levels of daily excretion of adrenaline (18.6 ±1.14 mg/day); noradrenaline (39.14±2.10 mg/day); and dopamine (336.63±8.47 mg/day) were signifi cantly higher in patients with depression.
