Abstract
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows: To determine the effects of psychological and pharmacological interventions for depression in CAD patients with comorbid depressive disorder. Effectiveness will be evaluated regarding different types of outcomes. Primary outcomes are remission of depression or reduction of depressive symptoms following the intervention, all‐cause and CAD‐related mortality as well as non‐fatal cardiac events or surgery (coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA)). Secondary outcomes are health care costs or resource utilisation and health‐related quality of life.

Depression is common and persistent in AMI survivors, likely reflecting treatment of somatic symptoms, and prevalence varies depending on assessment method.
Archives of Internal MedicinePatients With Depression Are Less Likely to Follow Recommendations to Reduce Cardiac Risk During Recovery From a Myocardial Infarction
710 Citations2000Roy C. Ziegelstein, James A. Fauerbach +4 more
Patients with depression following an acute MI are less likely to adhere to recommended behavior and lifestyle changes intended to reduce the risk of subsequent cardiac events, which could explain why depression in the hospital is related to long-term prognosis in patients recovering from an MI.

The role of confounding risk factors is presented, such as global burden of comorbid medical illness and modification of traditional risk factors, which may, in part, mediate the effect of depression on coronary artery disease.

An excess of anxiety disorders and that of mood disorders are found among persons with heart disease, and these associations hold true across countries despite substantial between-country differences in culture and mental disorder prevalence rates.

The more conservative estimates from the present analysis found that differences between antidepressants and active placebos were small, which suggests that unblinding effects may inflate the efficacy of antidepressants in trials using inert placebos.

Negative affectivity and some unique aspect of depression predict long-term cardiac-related mortality following a myocardial infarction independently of each other and cardiac disease severity.

The review suggests that classical TCAs are associated with a higher withdrawal rate due to side effect experience, although these results must be interpreted with caution due to the relatively small size of the review and the heterogeneity of the drugs and patient populations.

Results suggest that, in addition to the survival risks associated with post- MI depression, there are increased health care costs linked to both readmissions and out-patient contacts among depressed patients who survive the first post-MI year.

It is of high relevance for life quality research and clinical practice to pay attention to comorbidity, and methodological shortcomings should be taken into account in future research.

128 Citations2008Chris Dickens, Linda McGowan +5 more
Increased cardiac mortality in patients who develop depression after suffering myocardial infarction is shown, and further observational studies need to separate pre- and post-MI depression if to determine underlying mechanisms by which depression is associated with mortality following MI.
