“…These results are consistent with previous data about the relationship between functional social support and lower depression in heart disease (Eriksen, 1994;Penninx et al, 1996). This suggest that these may be a fruitful intervention target in ameliorating social support, in reducing depression levels, and ultimately improving HF patients' life satisfaction and quality of life (Chen et al, 2010;Gary, Dumbar, Higgins, Musselman, & Smith, 2010;Park et al, 2006).…”

This research examined life satisfaction, depressive symptoms and perceived social support in two groups of adults (N = 120; age 40-89 years). The first was formed by stable heart failure (HF) outpatients and the second was a control group of similar age. Perceived social support was the only significant predictor of life satisfaction in the control group but, in the HF group, life satisfaction was associated with more social support and less depressive symptoms. Gender (men > women) was also an important predictor of life satisfaction in both groups, but more significantly in the HF one. All women reported more depressive symptoms and less life satisfaction than men. Female HR patients also perceived more social support than male patients did. Finally, a partial mediation of depressive symptoms in the association between social support and life satisfaction was found in the HF group.Keywords: Life satisfaction; depressive symptoms; heart failure; perceived social support. Satisfacción vital, síntomas depresivos y apoyo social percibido en pacientes con insuficiencia cardiacaResumen: En esta investigación se analizaron la satisfacción vital, los síntomas depresivos y el apoyo social percibido en dos grupos de adultos (N =120; rango = 40-89 años), uno formado por pacientes no hospitalizados con insuficiencia cardiaca (IC) estable y otro control con personas de similar edad. El apoyo social percibido fue el único predictor significativo de la satisfacción vital en el grupo control, mientras que en el grupo con IC, se asociaba con más apoyo social y menos síntomas depresivos. El género fue también un predictor importante de la satisfacción vital (hombres > mujeres), aunque de forma más significativa en el grupo con IC. Todas las mujeres informaban más síntomas depresivos y menos satisfacción vital que los hombres. En el grupo IC, las mujeres también percibían más apoyo social que los varones. Finalmente, se encontró en este grupo que la asociación entre apoyo social y satisfacción vital estaba parcialmente mediada por los síntomas depresivos.Palabras clave: Satisfacción vital; síntomas depresivos; insuficiencia cardiaca; apoyo social percibido.

“…Depressive symptoms have also been associated with the worsening of HF symptoms (Chen, Li, Shieh, Yin, & Chiou, 2010;Tang, Yu, & Yeh, 2010) and decreased quality of life (Carels, 2004;Cully, Phillips, Kunik, Stanley, & Deswal, 2010;Luijendijk et al, 2010), even after controlling for baseline health status (Rumsfeld et al, 2005).…”

“…El sufrimiento ha sido considerado fuerte predictor de los niveles de fatiga en pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca (17) . La ansiedad, como sentimiento de malestar o temor y aprensión, produce fatiga (9) y de esta forma dificulta la realización de las actividades de vida diaria, perjudicando aún más el cuadro clínico del paciente.…”
