Aim. Analysis of psychosocial risk factors in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients among Russian centers of the EUROASPIRE IV study, comparing to overall study population.Material and methods. In the cross-sectional study, 24 European countries participated, including Russian Federation (3 centers). In the study, patients were included of the age 18-80 y.o., who, during the period ≥6 months to <3 years before the inclusion, had been hospitalized with myocardial infarction (MI) or other acute coronary syndromes (ACS) or for myocardial revascularization. To the study protocol, the analysis of medical charts was included, with following visit and structured interview. During the study, long-term results were evaluated, presence and level of the risk factors, including psychosocial, life quality parameters, adequacy of the acquired by patients recommendations and the grade of adherence. Prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms was assessed with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).Results. Overall, in the Russian centers, 746 patients were included, of those to the interview visit 424 admitted (mean age 63,4±9,0 y.o., 25,2% females). Educational level of the Russian cohort was higher than of overall study population (higher education in 44,3% and 22,3%, respectively). Prevalence of the anxiety symptoms in Russian patients and in overall population almost matched: 8-10 points by HADS-A in Russia and overall had 15,7% and 15,0% of participants, respectively, the ≥11 points — 12,4% and 11,3%, respectively. Contrary, the prevalence of depression symptoms in Russia was slightly higher: 8-10 by HADS had 16,4% and 14,6%, and ≥11 — 10,9% and 7,8%, respectively. Both anxiety and depression symptoms were more common among women; depression symptoms were more common for post-MI/ ACS patients than in the re-vascularized.Conclusion. By the data from European monitoring center of EUROASPIRE IV, in Russian cohort of CHD post MI/ACS, and revascularized patients there are specific differences in comparison with overall study population in psychosocial risk factors. Prevalence of clinically significant anxiety and depression symptoms in Russian cohort of EUROASPIRE IV was significantly lower than in earlier trials, including EUROASPIRE III, and was just slightly higher than in overall study population.
