| More Details: | Background: Psychosocial factors such as stress have been previously implicated as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). There is little evidence regarding the prevalence of stress among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: A total of 903 patients with AMI enrolled in the North Indian ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NORIN-STEMI) registry were included in this study. Perceived stress in these subjects was evaluated using the Perceived Stress Scale-10 questionnaire while the World health Organization (WHO-5) Well-being Index was used to evaluate psychological well-being. All these patients were followed up for one month and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were determined. Results: A majority of patients with AMI had either severe (478 [52.9%]) or moderate stress (347 [38.4%]) while low stress levels were observed in 78 [8.6%] patients. Additionally, most of the patients with AMI (478 [53%]) had WHO-5 well-being index |
