Depression and coronary heart disease

Andrew Steptoe

Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

Chapter 18 focuses on recent developments in research and clinical management, concentrating on five topics: the role of depression in the aetiology of CHD, the involvement of depressed states in the triggering of acute cardiac events, depression and prognosis following ACS, the mechanisms relating depression with CHD, and the management of depression in patients with CHD. It also addresses the issue of whether patients with CHD suffer from typical forms of depression, or whether their mood states are unusual, calling for innovative methods of management.
