Association of perceived stress,emotional regulation and symptoms of traumatic stress disorder in patients with acute myocardial infarction
Objective To study the correlation between perceived stress,emotional regulation and traumatic stress disorder in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods 110 patients diagnosed and treated for AMI at our hospital from May 2020 to March 2022 were selected as the observation group,and 110 volunteers who underwent physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group.The differences between the observation group and the control group were compared in the scores of the perceived stress scale,emotional regulation questionnaire and the Chinese civilian version of the post-traumatic stress Disorder symptom questionnaire.To study the correlation between perceived stress,emotional regulation and traumatic stress disorder symptoms in patients with acute myocardial infarction.Results The re-experiencing,avoidance,hypervigilance and total score in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group(t=3.387,5.464,4.795,4.795,P<0.05).PSS-4(t=10.963,P=0.000)in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group.The cognitive reappraisal,expression inhibition and total score in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group(t=2.670,3.738,7.798,P<0.05).Correlation analysis revealed positive correlations between patients're-experience,avoidance,hypervigilance,and total score with PSS-4,and negatively correlations with expression inhibition,cognitive reappraisal,and total ERQ score.Conclusion Perceived stress and emotional regulation in patients with AMI are significantly correlated with the symptoms of traumatic stress disorder.Timely adoption of emotional adjustment strategies during clinical intervention may improve patients'rehabilitation ability.
