摘要

Psychocardiology is a medical discipline that focuses on the interaction between cardiovascular diseases and mental disorders. Depression and anxiety disorders are common comorbidities in both acute and chronic cardiovascular conditions, while cardiovascular diseases significantly contribute to the premature mortality of patients with severe mental disorders. Therefore, in cases of severe mental illness, screening for the presence of cardiovascular disease or its risk factors is recommended and vice versa. The treatment of psychocardiological patients follows established clinical guidelines and consists of psychoeducation, psychotherapy and/or psychopharmacological treatment depending on the severity.
