“…Depressive symptoms were an independent predictor of mortality among 1006 heart failure patients 8 and of mortality and/or hospitalization among 204 heart failure outpatients. 9 Furthermore, depressive symptoms were associated with poor health-related quality of life among 84 patients with heart failure and were independent predictors of poor physical and psychological health-related quality of life among 206 patients with heart failure. 10,11 In a meta-analysis of 36 published studies among patients with heart failure, the average prevalence rate for clinically significant depression was 21.5%.…”

“…6) Moreover, having depressive illness or impaired QOL in CHF patients is linked to a worse prognosis. [7][8][9] Therefore, QOL would be a more important target for the management of CHF patients. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or β-blockers improve cardiac function and prognosis in patients with CHF.…”

Waon Therapy Improves Quality of Life as Well as Cardiac Function and Exercise Capacity in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure

SummaryWaon therapy (WT), which in Japanese means soothing warmth, is a repeated sauna therapy that improves cardiac and vascular endothelial function in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). We investigated whether WT could improve the quality of life (QOL) of CHF patients in addition to improving cardiac function and exercise capacity.A total of 49 CHF patients (69 ± 14 years old) were treated with a 60°C far infrared-ray dry sauna bath for 15 minutes and then kept in a bed covered with blankets for 30 minutes once a day for 3 weeks. At baseline and 3 weeks after starting WT, cardiac function, 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), flow mediated dilation (FMD) of the brachial artery, and SF36-QOL scores were determined.WT significantly improved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), 6MWD, and FMD (3.6 ± 2.3 to 5.1 ± 2.8%, P < 0.01). Moreover, WT significantly improved not only the physical (PC) but also mental component (MC) of the QOL scores. WT-induced improvement of PC was negatively correlated with changes in BNP (r = -0.327, P < 0.05), but MC improvement was not related directly to changes in BNP, LVEF, or 6MWD. WT-induced changes in MC were not parallel to PC improvement.WT improved QOL as well as cardiac function and exercise capacity in patients with CHF. Mental QOL improved independently of WT-induced improvement of cardiac function and exercise capacity. (Int Heart J 2015; 56: 203-208)

Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) place a significant burden on individuals and health care systems. Selfmanagement has been shown to be effective in reducing the symptoms of these conditions and improving quality of life. Resilient behavior has been suggested as underpinning the ability to self-manage well. This review sought to assess the effectiveness of interventions designed to increase resilience in people with COPD and/or CHF.
