“…The association between illness perception and patients' anxiety makes these two factors crucial, because they impact a person's emotions and behavior. Patients who will undergo PCI with positive perceptions and normal anxiety levels seem to be much more prepared to undergo treatment, because positive perceptions and the absence of anxiety make their emotional condition more stable [36]. A stable emotional condition also increases the patient's long-term confidence in maintaining their mental health [37].…”

BACKGROUND: Patients’ illness perceptions are thought to be associated with anxiety undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). AIM: This study aimed to determine the association between illness perception and anxiety undergoing PCI in patients with ACS. METHODS: This study used a cross-sectional design and enrolled 50 hospitalized patients with ACS who underwent elective PCI between December 2019 and March 2020. The study instruments were the Brief-Illness Perception Questionnaire to evaluate illness perception and the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale to evaluate patients’ anxiety. Statistical analysis was performed using the Pearson correlation test with significance set as p < 0.05. RESULTS: This study showed that 56% of respondents had positive perceptions toward their disease. The majority of respondents (94%) also indicated a low level of anxiety undergoing PCI. The Pearson correlation test results revealed a significant association between illness perception and the level of anxiety undergoing PCI in patients with ACS (p = 0.043; r = 0.287). CONCLUSION: There is a significant association between illness perception and anxiety undergoing PCI in patients with ACS. The positive perceptions led to lower patients’ anxiety, and vice versa.

“…Characterized by an annual mortality rate of about 17.9 million people worldwide as at 2016 [ 1 ], cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain one of the commonest causes of death globally, accounting for 20% of worldwide deaths and 35% of deaths in Iran [ 2 , 5 ]. Myocardial infraction (MI) has been known to cause more than four-fifths of deaths from cardiovascular diseases [ 3 ].…”

“…Patients can successfully adapt to CVDs only if they make long-term changes to their lifestyles and change their false beliefs regarding their conditions [ 21 ]. In addition, adherence of patients to secondary preventive measures may reduce the risk of progression of coronary heart disease (CHD) and speed up the recovery progress [ 1 ].…”

“…The concept of illness perception, a relevant factor in cardiovascular health behavior [ 1 ], is an organised belief model that predicts the patient’s future behavior toward the disease management and the correction of risk factors [ 15 ]. Based on several studies, a relationship has been established between illness perception and patients outcomes such as quality of life [ 16 , 17 ], coping [ 18 ] and health care use [ 19 ].…”

“…Knowing patients’ risk factors and their perception of CVDs can provide clinicians and health managers with realistic insights for the development and implementation of public health policies to promote patient education regarding the reduction of adjustable risk factors and prevention of IHDs. In illness perception, patients’ beliefs regarding lifestyle and disease risk can be adjusted in clinical interventions, giving nurses and other clinicians the opportunity to develop purposive interventions that will correct such beliefs in patients [ 3 ], especially as changes in illness perception over time has been shown to be useful in aiding the development of educational programs to bring about positive attitudes towards health beliefs in this subset of patients [ 1 ]. Hence, this study aimed to determine the IHD risk factors and their correlations with illness perception among the patients hospitalized and diagnosed with AMI at Shahid Madani Cardiovascular Center (Tabriz, Iran) who received the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).…”

Background Knowing of perception of the illness, and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with myocardial infarction is crucial in engaging in effective secondary prevention. This study aimed to examine illness perception and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods The participants comprised 131 patients undergoing a first-time percutaneous coronary intervention at a metropolitan, tertiary referral hospital in Tabriz, Iran. The convenience sampling method was employed to select the research sample within a six-month period. The instruments used were as follows: (1) Demographic and health information form, (2) The Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (3) The Health Risk Assessment framework developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The design of the study was descriptive, cross sectional. The continuous variables were analyzed using Independent t-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA); and categorical variables were compared using the chi-square test. Results Most participants had a positive family history of cardiovascular disease (54.2%), with 66.4% of participants having at least one cardiovascular risk factor such as diabetes (36.6%) hypertension (32.8%) and dyslipidemia (16%). Most participants were physically inactive (78.6%), about 48.9% were overweight, 34.4% suffered from obesity and 26% were smokers. Illness perception in this study was seen to be high (6.21), with highest scores occurring in the illness control dimension (6.83) and lowest scores occurring in the understanding dimension (3.77). There was a significant relationship between illness perception and physical activity, nutrition, sleep and general health. Direct significant relationships between biometric values (cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure); psychological factors (depression, anxiety and stress) and illness perception were also found to exist. Conclusions Low scores in two dimensions of illness perception may lead to psychological consequences such as stress, anxiety, and depression. The relationship between illness perception and some risk factors of cardiovascular disease such as physical activity, diet and biometric values, reveal the need for more attention to patient education and counselling.

Decision‐making processes behind seeking regular cardiac checkups for individuals with Marfan syndrome: A grounded theory study

Patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) present with various symptoms, such as aortic aneurysm/dissection, tall stature, and lens deviation. Among them, acute aortic dissection is a complication that leads to sudden death. Some individuals with MFS are reluctant to see a cardiologist and discontinue regular checkups until they develop life‐threatening complications. We conducted a grounded theory study to investigate how individuals with MFS decided whether to adhere to healthcare recommendations, specifically to attend cardiology appointments. The study recruited individuals with a clinical or genetic diagnosis of MFS from a Japanese university hospital and individuals from a support group. Semi‐structured interviews were conducted with 28 consenting participants. In this study, we identified the decision‐making processes of individuals with MFS concerning their cardiology visits. We extracted “perception of the gap between their health status and medical recommendations” as the central category. This decision‐making process consisted of three parts: (A) the process by which an individual with MFS sees a cardiologist for the first time, (B) the process by which an individual with MFS keeps up with cardiology checkups, and (C) the process by which parents bring their children with MFS to the cardiologist. Individuals who learned of the possibility of MFS decided whether to adhere to medical recommendations depending on how they perceived the gap between their health status and the medical recommendations. In addition to medical information and treatment experience, adaptation to MFS, which changed through interactions with others, influenced the perception of the gap. This study suggests the role of genetic counseling and molecular genetic diagnosis as factors that may facilitate adaptation to MFS. The involvement of genetic counselors is important for helping individuals with MFS keep up with regular checkups while affirming their own experiences. These results provide insight into adherence to medical recommendations for individuals with MFS.
