State Anger and Short-Term Heart Failure Outcomes: Comparison with Perceived Stress
Abstract
Evidence suggests that anger episodes may trigger adverse cardiac events, and we previously demonstrated that short-term stress appraisal levels were associated with heart failure (HF) exacerbations. This study investigates associations between anger and short-term exacerbations, including hospitalizations or death, functional status, symptoms, and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF).
