. Introduccion: La depresion es comun tras un sindrome coronario agudo afectando al pronostico. Los resultados de intervenciones psicosociales presentes en la Rehabilitacion Cardiaca (RC) senalan que modifican los factores de riesgo, entre ellos, la depresion.
. Objetivo: Comparar el nivel de depresion experimentado por pacientes con Infarto Agudo de Miocardio (IAM) que han participado en un programa de prevencion y RC con el experimentado por pacientes con IAM que no hayan participado, diferenciando los resultados entre distintos grupos de edad, sexo y periodo de tiempo.
. Metodos: Estudio de Cohortes. Criterios de inclusion: episodio de IAM en los 2 dias previos al cuestionario;
ingreso en cuidados intensivos con duracion . 24 horas entre Marzo y Abril del 2010; edad entre 18 y 70 anos;
alfabetizados; no episodio de depresion y/o enfermedad psiquiatrica previo al IAM. Se analizaron variables sociodemograficas, clinicas y el cuestionario de The Beck Depression Inventory II. Variables cualitativas expresadas como frecuencias absolutas y porcentajes comparadas con �Ô2 o Fisher. Variables cuantitativas mediante media�}SD comparadas con U de Mann-Whitney. Analisis: PASW Statistics version 18.0.
. Resultados: Se incluyeron 14 pacientes con edad 58,3�}9,6, 85,7% hombres, 78,6% fumadores, 42,9% hipertensos y puntuacion total del cuestionario de depresion 14,7�}12.
Los pacientes con RC tenian: mayor edad (61�}9,2 vs. 54�}10,8), menor diferencia de peso (1,7�}1,7 vs. 2,7�}2,6), mayor puntuacion cuestionario inicial (14,2�}8,9 vs. 10�}10,5) y final (12,2�}9 vs. 7,8�}9,5), todas p>0,05.
. Conclusiones: Los resultados del estudio piloto indican la existencia de depresion entre pacientes que sufrieron un IAM, tanto en la fase precoz como posterior. No se encontraron resultados estadisticamente significativos entre la cohorte expuesta y no expuesta como muestras independientes ni relacionadas
. Introduction: Depression is usual after an acute coronary syndrome and it influences the prognosis. The results of psychosocial interventions present in Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) indicate that they modify the risk factors, depression among others.
. Aim: Comparing the level of depression experienced by patients suffering from Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) who have taken part in a program of CR and prevention, with the level of those who haven�ft participated in the program, discriminating the results among different groups of age, gender and time.
. Methods: Cohort Study. Inclusion criteria: AMI episode 2 days before the questionnaire was performed; admission in the intensive care unit for . 24 hours between March and April 2010; age between 18 and 70; literate; without episode of depression and/or psychiatric illness before the heart attack. Socio-demographic and clinical variables were analyzed, as well as the questionnaire �gThe Beck Depression Inventory II�h. Qualitative variables expressed as absolute frequencies and percentages compared to �Ô2 or Fisher. Quantitative variables by means of mean�}SD compared to U of Mann-Whitney. Analysis: PASW Statistics version 18.0.
. Results: 14 patients were included, male, age 58.3�}9.6, years old 85.7% of them, 78.6% smokers, 42.9% hypertensive and with a total score of 14.7�}12 in the depression questionnaire.
The patients with CR were: elder (61�}9.2 vs. 54�}10.8), with smaller weight difference (1.7�}1.7 vs. 2.7�}2.6), higher score in the initial questionnaire (14.2�}8.9 vs. 10�}10.5) and in the final one (12.2�}9 vs. 7.8�}9.5), all of them p>0.05.
. Conclusions: This pilot study showed the existence of depression among the patients with heart attack, both in the early stage and in the subsequent one. Results were not statistically significant among the cohort exposed and the one not exposed, neither as independent samples nor as related samples.
