Abstract
Background Genetic heart diseases (GHDs) can be clinically heterogeneous and pose an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). The implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is a lifesaving therapy. Impacts on prospective and long-term psychological and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) after ICD implant in patients with GHDs are unknown. Objectives Investigate the psychological functioning and HR-QoL over time in patients with GHDs who receive an ICD, and identify risk factors for poor psychological functioning and HR-QoL. Methods A longitudinal, prospective study design was used. Patients attending a specialized clinic, diagnosed with a GHD for which they received an ICD between May 2012 and January 2015, were eligible. Baseline surveys were completed prior to ICD implantation with 5-year follow-up after ICD implant. We measured psychological functioning (Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale, Florida Shock Anxiety Scale), HR-QoL (Short-Form 36v2), and device acceptance (Florida Patient Acceptance Scale). Results Forty patients were included (mean age 46.3 ± 14.2 years; 65.0% male). Mean psychological and HR-QoL measures were within normative ranges during follow-up. After 12 months, 33.3% and 19.4% of participants showed clinically elevated levels of anxiety and depression, respectively. Longitudinal mixed-effect analysis showed significant improvements from baseline to first follow-up for the overall cohort, with variability increasing after 36 months. Nontertiary education and female sex predicted worse mental HR-QoL and anxiety over time, while comorbidities predicted depression and worse physical HR-QoL. Conclusion While the majority of patients with a GHD adjust well to their ICD implant, a subset of patients experience poor psychological and HR-QoL outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess the depression and anxiety status and their association with sleep disturbance among one single center Chinese inpatients with arrhythmia and help cardiologists better identify patients who need psychological care. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 495 inpatients with arrhythmia treated in Fuwai Hospital from October to December 2019. The psychological status and sleep quality were assessed using the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify the potential risk factors for anxiety and depression. RESULTS The mean age of the participants was 52.8 ± 14.4 years, and 58.0% were male. Approximately 18.3% were in an anxious state, and 33.5% were in a depressive state. In multivariate logistic regression, age from 50 to 59 (p = 0.03), unemployment (p = 0.026) and sleep disturbance (p < 0.001) were the risk factors for anxiety status. Cardiac implanted electronic devices (CIEDs) (p = 0.004) and sleep disturbance (p < 0.001) were the risk factors for depression status. A total of 150 patients (30.3%) were categorized as having poor sleep quality (PSQI > 7). The adjusted odds ratio (OR) of having poor sleep quality was 4.30-fold higher in patients with both anxiety and depression (OR: 4.30; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.52-7.35); 2.67-fold higher in patients with depression (OR: 2.67; 95% CI: 1.78-4.00); and 3.94-fold higher in patients with anxiety (OR: 3.94; 95% CI: 2.41-6.44). CONCLUSIONS Psychological intervention is critical for Chinese inpatients with arrhythmia, especially for patients aged 50-59, unemployed, or those using CIEDs. Poor sleep quality could be an important risk factor linked to psychological disturbances.

Depressive symptoms in patients after primary and secondary prophylactic ICD implantation. Clin Res Cardiol 2021; 111:1210-1218. [PMID: 34779916 DOI: 10.1007/s00392-021-01940-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2021] [Accepted: 09/06/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are successfully used to treat life-threatening arrhythmias and prevent sudden cardiac death. However, they are also known to have a major psychological impact leading to higher prevalence of depression and anxiety in a substantial proportion of patients. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of depressive symptoms in a large cohort of ICD carriers with a different clinical background and to compare prevalence and risk factors between patients with primary and secondary prophylactic indication for ICD implantation. METHODS 315 out of 622 patients (50.6%), who regularly attended ICD assessments at the University Hospital Zurich completed the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI I-II) to estimate current depressive symptoms. RESULTS Overall, depressive symptoms were common in ICD patients, with 20.3% of the patients showing clinically relevant depression (12.4% mild depressive symptoms, 6.0% moderate, 1.9% severe). Moderate to severe depressive symptoms seem to be more likely in patients with secondary prophylactic indication of the ICD as compared to a group of patients with primary prophylactic implantation. Patients that received more than 5 ICD shocks since implantation reveal more depressive symptoms than those with less events. Mean BDI Score in total (n = 315) was at 8.44 ± 7.56 without a statistically significant difference between the primary (M = 8.04 ± 7.10, n = 153) and secondary (M = 8.81 ± 7.98, n = 162) preventive group (p value = 0.362), even after adjustment for various clinical characteristics. ICD patients should therefore be well supported and advised concerning the psychological impact of their device and particular aspects of daily life concerns (e.g. physical activity), with a special focus on patients, who have received multiple shocks.

Abstract
Depression is a common disorder in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). There are a variety of studies estimated the prevalence of depression in these patients. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of depression in patients with ICD. METHODS In the present study, we conducted a systematic review of studies published in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), Medline, and EMBASE without any time filtration to obtain studies investigated the prevalence of depression in patients with ICD. Search terms consisted of "Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator(s)" in combination with "depression," "depressive," "prevalence," "implanted cardioverter," "implantable," and "implantable defibrillator." RESULTS We identified 15 relevant studies, comprising data from 10,182 patients with ICD from whom 2400 (23.58%) (95% CI, 15.36-31.79) had depression. The results of the subgroup analysis showed that the prevalence of depression among middle-aged patients (28.58% with confidence interval of 95%, 21.51-35.65) was higher than elderly patients (22.23% with confidence interval of 95%, 11.21-33.24) and it was not significantly correlated with the mean age of samples (P = 0.255), sample size (P = 0.686), and the publication date (P = 0.784), although there was a significant correlation between the prevalence of depression and the quality of articles so that the prevalence was decreasing with an increase in the quality (P = 0.046). CONCLUSION Around 1 in 4 patients with ICD (23.58%) experiences depression progression after an ICD placement. This prevalence is comparable to that in the general population, and close to that of the patients with common chronic diseases.

Abstract
Background: Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in patients with cardiac diseases and associated with poor health outcomes. However, little is known about sleep disturbance in patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator. Aims: We examined the prevalence and predictors of sleep disturbance and the impact on perceived health status in a Dutch cohort of implantable cardioverter defibrillator patients. Methods: Patients (n=195) enrolled in the Web-based distress program for implantable cardioverter defibrillator patients (WEBCARE) trial completed questionnaires at the time of implantable cardioverter defibrillator implantation, three, six and 12 months afterwards. Sleep disturbance was assessed with the corresponding item #3 of the Patient Health Questionnaire 9. Results: At baseline, 67% (n=130) reported sleep disturbance (cut off ≥1). One year later, the prevalence was 57% (n=112). Younger age (odds ratio=0.96, 95% confidence interval 0.92–0.99; p=0.012) and high negative affectivity/low social inhibition (odds ratio=4.47, 95% confidence interval 1.52–13.17; p=0.007) were associated with sleep disturbance at 12 months in adjusted analyses. Sleep disturbance was not associated with health status at 12 months. Charlson Comorbidity Index, anxiety, Type D personality and high negative affectivity/low social inhibition were associated with impaired health status at follow-up. Conclusions: Sleep disturbance was highly prevalent in patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator. Younger age and high negative affectivity predicted sleep disturbance 12 months post-implantation independent of other demographic, clinical, intervention and psychological covariates. Sleep disturbance was not associated with impaired health status at the 12-month follow-up.
