EQ-5D feeling thermometer, Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36-Item Questionnaire, Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire, and heart failure symptom severity questionnaires were administered by self-report. Depression diagnoses at baseline were: major depression and/or dysthymia (n=12, 9%), minor depression (n=14, 10%), and no depression (n=113, 81%). After adjusting for age, gender, and medical comorbidity, these depression groups differed by repeated measures analysis of covariance on most health status measures including the EQ-5D feeling thermometer; Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36-Item Questionnaire general health and physical role function subscales; Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire total score, symptom total, physical limitation...Continue Reading
