Abstract

Aim: There has been increasing evidence on high prevalance of depression and its relationship to poor prognosis in patients with con- gestive heart failure. This study aims to determine the relationship between depression and inflammatory markers in patients hospi- talized for congestive heart failure. Material and Method: 45 hospitalized patients with left ventricular ejection fractions &#8804; %40 were given Beck Depression (BDI) and Beck Anxiety Inventories (BAI). Depression was defined as a score on the Beck Depression Inventory &#8805;10. White blood cell and platelet counts, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and high sensitive (hs) CRP levels were measured. Results: Although 80% of the patients scored as depressed only 11% received antidepressant medication. 84% of the patients had low levels of anxiety and none had severe anxiety. A significant correlation was observed between functional class and BDI scores (p<0.01). Platelet counts were higher in the depressed group (253.36±77.12 and 180.33±80.14 x 103/mL, p=0.048). There was a weak correlation between BDI scores and hsCRP levels (r=0.345, p=0.049). hsCRP levels increased as the disease severity increased. Conclusions: Depression is common and undertreated in patients with heart failure. Increased inflammatory activity may have a neg- ative impact on the outcome of heart failure.

Özet

Amaç: Konjestif kalp yetersizliğinde depresyon sık görülen ve prognozu kötü yönde etkileyen bir durumdur. Bu çalışmanın amacı kon- jestif kalp yetersizliği nedeni ile hastaneye yatan hastalarda depresyon ile enflamasyon göstergeleri arasında bir ilişki olup olmadığı- nın saptanmasıdır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kalp yetersizliği nedeni ile yatırılan ve sol ventrikül ejeksiyon fraksiyonları (EF) %40 ve altında olan toplam 45 has- ta Beck Depresyon Envanteri (BDE) ve Beck Kaygı Envanteri (BKE) ile değerlendirildi. Hastaların beyaz küre ve trombosit sayıları, erit- rosit sedimentasyon hızı ve yüksek duyarlı CRP (hsCRP) düzeyleri ölçüldü. Bulgular: Hastaların %80’ininde skorlar depresif düzeyde olmasına karşın yalnızca %11’i antidepresan ajan kullanmaktaydı. Hastaların %84’ü düşük kaygı düzeyine sahipken hiçbir hastada ciddi kaygı saptanmadı. Fonksiyonel sınıf ile BDE skorları arasında anlamlı bir iliş- ki saptanırken (p<0,01) BKE skorları ile arasında anlamlı bir fark saptanmadı. Depresif bulguları olan grupta trombosit sayıları daha yük- sekti (253,36±77,12 ve 180,33±80,14x103/μL, p=0,048). Korelasyon analizlerinde BDE skorları ile hsCRP düzeyleri arasında zayıf bir ko- relasyon olduğu saptandı (r=0,345, p=0,049). Fonksiyonel sınıf artıp (p=0,017) EF düştükçe hsCRP düzeylerinin arttığı gözlendi. Sonuç: Konjestif kalp yetersizliği nedeni ile hastaneye yatan hastalarda depresyon sık olup, yeteri kadar tedavi edilmemektedir. Depresyon ile artan enflamatuvar aktivite hastalık seyrini olumsuz yönde etkileyebilir.
