Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Temporal dynamics of depressive symptoms and physical activity.
Secondary outcome
Role of feelings of anxiety in the temporal dynamics of depressive symptoms
and physical activity.
Background summary
Depressive symptoms increase the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality
in myocardial infarction (MI) patients. Physical inactivity is associated as a
mechanism in this relationship. Insight in the temporal dynamics between
physical activity and depressive symptoms in post-MI patients is of great
importance in order to prevent the deleterious effects of depression on heart
disease prognosis and improve patient counselling and treatment.
Study objective
The aim of this study is to investigate the temporal dynamics between
depressive symptoms and physical activity in post-MI patients, in order to
prevent the deleterious effects of depression on heart disease prognosis and
improve patient counselling and treatment.
Study design
Multiple-case study of 7post-MI patients with depressive symptoms, by assessing
the degree of physical activity and depressive symptoms with a daily
self-rating questionnaire during a twelve week period.
Study burden and risks
There are no risks involved in participating in this study. Participants will
complete a daily self-rating questionnaire for a twelve week period. The total
burden is estimated to be 14 hours.
