Abstract
Introduction: Heart failure is the most common cause of death. About 20 %-40 % of heart failure patients’ have depressive disorders. Improvements in patients’ quality of life could give an effect on the progression of cardiovascular disease. This study aims to describe depression and quality of life in heart failure patients. Methods: This study was conducted using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) questionnaire and the Short-form 36 (SF36) questionnaire in heart failure patients’ populations during January-March 2020. Results: 65 subjects were obtained in this study. Consisted of 37 male subjects (57 %), 28 female subjects (43 %). The highest ages were 61-70 years (38.5 %) and 51-60 years (36.9 %). Thirty-eight respondents (38.58 %) had no symptoms of depression. The mental health dimension has the highest score, with 76,123 median values. At the same time, the dimension of functional limitations related to emotional problems has the lowest score, with a 56,410-median value. There were 22 subjects (22.34 %) with mild depressive symptoms, 5 subjects (5.8 %) with moderate depressive symptoms, whilst none of the populations had severe depressive symptoms. Conclusion: The most common depiction of depression in heart failure patients is no symptoms of depression, mild depression, and moderate depression.
