“…the 2013 recommendations of the american Heart association stress the importance of the patient's assessment of their health status [1]. one vital factor in the subjective assessment of health status is the patient's self-assessment of the symptoms they experience, their ability to function, their emotions, and their quality of life [1]. other authors have also pointed out that health status self-assessment should be standard in the evaluation of treatment results of patients who have undergone cardiac surgery [2].…”

“…In recent years HRQOL and patient-reported health status have gained considerable interest on various levels. 178 Cardiac patients with poor self-reported HRQOL tend to have higher rates of re-infarction and rehospitalisation, 179,180 and they are less likely to be invited to, or to attend CR.…”

A large body of empirical research shows that psychosocial risk factors (PSRFs) such as low socio-economic status, social isolation, stress, Type-D personality, depression and anxiety increase the risk of incident coronary heart disease (CHD) and also contribute to poorer health-related quality of life (HRQL) and prognosis in patients with established CHD.PSRFs may also act as barriers to lifestyle changes and treatment adherence and may moderate the effects of cardiac rehabilitation (CR). Furthermore, there appears to be a bidirectional interaction between PSRFs and the cardiovascular system. Stress, anxiety and depression affect the cardiovascular system through immune, neuroendocrine and behavioural pathways. In turn, CHD and its associated treatments may lead to distress in patients, including anxiety and depression. In clinical practice, PSRFs can be assessed with single-item screening questions, standardised questionnaires, or structured clinical interviews.Psychotherapy and medication can be considered to alleviate any PSRF-related symptoms and to enhance HRQOL, but the evidence for a definite beneficial effect on cardiac endpoints is inconclusive. A multimodal behavioural intervention, integrating counseling for PSRFs and coping with illness should be included within comprehensive CR. Patients with clinically significant symptoms of distress should be referred for psychological counseling or psychologically focused interventions and/or psychopharmacological treatment. To conclude, the success of CR may critically depend on the interdependence of the body and mind and this interaction needs to be reflected through the assessment and management of PSRFs in line with robust scientific evidence, by trained staff, integrated within the core CR team.

“…2 Since the AHA announced its 2020 Impact Goals, several independent studies have confirmed the importance of cardiovascular health. A robust inverse and stepwise association of cardiovascular health with incidence of CVD, all‐cause mortality, CVD mortality, and heart failure in US and non‐US populations has been reported 3, 4, 5, 6…”
