Anxiety and coronary heart disease
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.6016/ZdravVestn.2430Keywords:
anxiety, coronary heart disease, comorbidity, antidepressantsAbstract
In patients with coronary heart disease anxiety is often overlooked. Symptoms of anxiety are often similar to coronary heart disease symptoms. The prevalence of anxiety in general population and coronary heart disease patients is very high. While the underlying pathophysiology of the connection remains unclear, anxiety lowers the quality of life and is a factor for a higher risk of morbidity and mortality due to coronary heart disease.
