Abstract

        Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) should undergo rapid assessment for reperfusion therapy. Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is the standard treatment and the preferred reperfusion strategy for ACS patients, as it not only decreases mortality rates, but also influences Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) after treatment. This research aimed to study HRQoL and factors related to HRQoL among ACS persons after PCI. The subjects were 88 persons at 4-12 months following their PCI who received service at the Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital outpatient department. Instruments included a demo- graphic data record form, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Fear of Death Assessment Form, and the Short-Form Health Survey 36 (SF-36). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient.

         The results of the study were as follows:

  1.  Persons with ACS after PCI had moderate to high average scores for each HRQoL dimension.
  2. Anxiety was negatively, significantly correlated with the dimensions of general mental health, general health perception, energy/vitality, role limitation due to physical problems, and role limitation due to emotional problems.
  3. Fear of death was negatively, significantly correlated with the role limitation due to physical problems, physical function, and bodily pain dimensions.

         The results of this study can provide basic information for promoting HRQoL among ACS persons after receiving PCI.
