Ninety patients (32.1%) had depressive disorders within depressive episode, dysthymia, adjustment disorder. The level of depression according to CES-D varied from 19 to 28 points. Comparative analysis of two groups of patients showed that CHD patients with depression had more severe grade III angina (22.1% vs. 11.6%; P = 0.036) more frequently. Differences regarding frequency of arterial hypertension (AH) (91.1% vs. 63.2%; P = 0.0002), type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) (26.8% vs. 17.5%; P = 0.038), obesity (30.7 ± 3.9 vs. 29.5 ± 4.5; P = 0.015), arrhythmias (34.4% vs. 25.2%; P = 0.015); cases of myocardial infarction (47.8% vs. 17.9%; P = 0.0001) were revealed. Among patients with depressive disorders persons with experience of surgical myocardial revascularization (P = 0.004), degree II–III of disability (23.3% vs. 11.6%; P = 0.0118) were present more frequently. Patients with depression were characterized by low economic status (64.4% vs. 23.7%; P = 0.0001); absence of social support (34.4% vs. 12.6%; P = 0.0001); frequent stress situations in personal history (71.1% vs. 32.6%; P = 0.0002).
