Abstract The goal of treatment in stable coronary artery disease is to improve prognosis and quality of life of the patients. International Guidelines support revascularization procedures for symptomatic patients unresponsive to optimal medical treatment. Previous studies demonstrated, in fact, the therapeutic efficacy of coronary angioplasty in reducing angina and improving the functional capacity of these patients. The ORBITA study, recently published, challenged these assertions by demonstrating the lack of benefit of angioplasty over placebo in terms of effort tolerance in a population of patients with single-vessel coronary artery disease. What lesson could we learn from the ORBITA study?

Design And Methods

Objective. To study quality of life in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and comorbid anxiety-depressive disorders. Design and methods. 163 patients with CAD were surveyed. The diagnosis of anxiety-depressive disorders was confirmed according ICD-10. Quality of life was studied with Seattle Angina Questionnaire. Results. Patients with CAD and affective disorders perceive angina, as an illness, more negatively. Patients with CAD and prevalent depressive component are characterized by poorer quality of life. In males quality of life is lower. Conclusion. Among patients with CAD and comorbid anxiety-depressive disorders those with prevalent depressive component and males have the poorest quality of life.
