TRAIT ANXIETY AS A RISK FACOR OF COGNITIVE DYSFUNCTION IN PATIENTS AFTER MYOCARDIAL REVASCULARIZATION
Aim. To study the effects of trait anxiety (TA) on the post-CABG (coronary artery bypass graft surgery) dynamics of cognitive function in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Material and methods. In total, 52 patients, aged 45–70 years, were divided into two groups: with moderate (n=24) and...

| Summary: | Aim. To study the effects of trait anxiety (TA) on the post-CABG (coronary artery bypass graft surgery) dynamics of cognitive function in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Material and methods. In total, 52 patients, aged 45–70 years, were divided into two groups: with moderate (n=24) and high (n=28) levels of TA. Results. The patients with high TA demonstrated worse cognitive function parameters 6 months after CABG, compared to the patients with moderate TA levels. Conclusion. High TA levels are one of the factors which negatively affect cognitive function parameters in CHD patients. These patients could be regarded at increased risk of post-CABG cerebrovascular complications. |
