Abstract

Backgroud: Because of the important role of adhering to treatment to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events and mortality, studying the factors affecting treatment adherence (TA) is warranted. This study aimed to identify the impact of psychosomatic factors on adhering to treatment among patients with acute myocardial infarction. Materials and Methods: This is a cohort study as a part of the Isfahan ST-segment-elevated Myocardial Infarction Cohort Study. psychosomatic factors such as health anxiety, illness denial, irritable mood, and Demoralization were assessed among 867 patients at the first visit. The patients were followed for 2 years,TA and major adverse cardiovascular events were checked annually in survivors. Results: The results from binary logistic regression applied to find the association between TA and psychosomatic factors showed that the patients with health anxiety, irritable mood, and Demoralization were significantly poor adherent to treatment (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]: 1. 39 [1. 02, 2. 73], 1. 51 [1. 02, 2. 37], and 1. 66 [1. 02, 2. 91]), respectively. The associations remained the same when adjusted for various potential confounders. Conclusions: psychosomatic factors played an essential role in adhering to treatment among patients with acute myocardial infarction. As a result, appropriate psychological interventions may help the patients adhere to their treatment better.
