Abstract

Aim
To examine the prevalence of depression in patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), as well as the relationship between the depression and quality of life.
Methods
The survey was conducted via sociodemographic questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Short Form 36
Health Survey questionnaire (SF-36). The result of SF-36 is expressed in subscales that make up the health status profile, i.e. physical functioning, physical role, emotional role, social functioning, mental health, vitality, pain and general health.
Results
The study included 120 patients, of which 70 males and 50 females aged between 41 and 88 years (mean 64.73±11.218). All patients were hospitalized at the Clinical Centre of the University of Sarajevo, Clinic for Cardiovascular Disease and Rheumatism, due to complications caused by AMI. After AMI 59 (49.17%) patients had depression. Depression was negatively associated with physical functioning, physical role, emotional role, social functioning, mental health, vitality, pain and general health. Physical functioning (r= -0.701; p<0.01) and physical role (r = -0.538; p<0.01) had the highest correlation with depression.
Conclusion
The evaluation of depressive symptoms after AMI is imperative, because the appearance of symptoms could have an
effect on the patient's quality of life.
