Brief Summary: The European guidelines emphasize the importance of conducting psychological screenings to investigate the presence of stress and symptoms of anxiety and depression in patients with cardiovascular disease depression common among patients with CVD is associated with increased mortality disability decreased adherence to healthy lifestyles and medical treatments and together with anxiety the risk of mortality increases by about 3 times stress furthermore is associated with the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases and is correlated with low adherence and cigarette smoking

Less studied but not less important are the incidence of anxiety depression and stress in pulmonary disease the relationship between mental disorders and pulmonary diseases as well as the effect of the psychological component on the rehabilitative outcome of such patients for example there is evidence that those suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD present symptoms of depression and anxiety much more frequently than the general population and that these two mental disorders may exacerbate COPD itself

The literature therefore highlights that the risk of onset of cardiovascular disease increases with the severity of mental disorder and some psychological variables correlate with the outcomes of cardiac rehabilitation intervention crucial for reducing rehospitalizations myocardial infarction and mortality as well as for improving the patients quality of life and ability to perform physical exercises

In light of this evidence and the recent recommendations of the ESC the present study aims to conduct screening for symptoms of anxiety depression and stress in all patients admitted to the Cardiology and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Units of the Milan Center Camaldoli in order to assess their incidence and to select through validated tools patients who require personalized psychological intervention based on their level of risk correlating then the presence of such symptoms with the rehabilitative outcome in order to assess how much the mental component interferes with the care pathway The level of acceptance and feasibility of a computerized data collection procedure will also be evaluated a procedure that if well accepted would make the screening process much simpler safer and more economical
