| Abstract |
Background
This study examined the impact of type D personality on health status and health behaviors in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: Using a cross-sectional study design, 106 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients treated with PCI completed 4 measuring tools - a 14-item type D Personality Scale (DS-14), Seattle Angina Questionnaire’s Physical Limitation scale, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile-Version Ⅱ. All were completed between July 2009 and March 2010. Results: The prevalence of type D personality was 27.4%. Type D patients were significantly more anxious (P<0.001), and depressed (P<0.001) compared with non-type D patients. However, there was no significant difference in physical health status. In addition, type D patients reported performing significantly fewer stress management techniques in health behaviors than non-type D patients (P=0.012). Conclusion: Type D personality is a risk factor that predicts poor outcome in CAD. The role of personality factors as determinants of clinical outcome and health status should not be overlooked as these factors may have much explanatory power.
