Aim of the work

To follow the significance of some psychological risk factors in patients with anxiety and depression symptoms with cardio-vascular diseases.

Materials and methods

During the research we included 30 patients with anxiety and depression symptoms diagnosed with cardio-surgical diseases after cardio-surgical intervention. They were chosen randomly, hospitalized and treated in the Specialized cardio-surgical clinic Filip II, Skopje. The patients were of both sexes, aged 30-70. They were evaluated by HAMD and HAMA and non-standardized questionnaire.

The patients were tested once two weeks after the cardio-surgical intervention.

Results:

In 25 patients there was a score increase in HAMD and HAMA in correlation with the psychological risk factors (stressful events: losing the job, losing someone you love, hostility, high professional plans and ambition)

Conclusion:

Psychologically unfavourable situations are risk factors which lead to anxiety and depression symptoms in cardio-vascular diseases.
