Cardiovascular risk factors and quality of life in women who underwent revascularization with coronary stenting
Abstract
Introduction: Cardiovascular risk factors are directly responsible for the high mortality from atherosclerotic coronary artery disease in women.
Objective: To describe these risk factors, the clinical course and quality of life in women after coronary angioplasty.
Method: A descriptive, longitudinal prospective study was conducted in women (n=62) who underwent revascularization with PTCA and stent implantation from January to June 2011. Clinical follow-up was performed for 180 days through medical con-sultations.
Results: The mean age was 52.8 years and the most frequent cardiovascular risk factor was hypertension (66.1 %); diabetes (24.2 %) was the least prevalent. One-vessel atherosclerotic coronary artery disease was the most common (87.1%), and three-vessel disease (1.6%) was the least frequent one. Only one stent was implanted in 75.8 % of patients, and only one patient required the implantation of three stents; 83.9% of patients expressed that their quality of life was good, 14.5 % considered it was acceptable and one patient estimated it was poor. During clinical follow-up, no cardiovascular events was reported in 93.5 % of patients. Diabetes and poor quality of life showed a statistically significant association with the extent of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, the number of stents used and cardiovascular events.
Conclusions: Women with atherosclerotic coronary artery disease who underwent revascularization with coronary stents show a high frequency of risk factors, and have a favorable clinical course with a prevalence of positive perceptions concerning their quality of life.Downloads
