[Abstract] Objective To investigate the relationship between major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and negative emotions after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods A total of 120 patients with coronary heart disease in our hospital from July 2018 to November 2019 were the subjects of this study. All were treated with PCI. After surgery, the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) were used to evaluate patients depression, anxiety and other negative emotions, and to compare whether they were combined with anxiety and the incidence of MACE in patients with depression after PCI. Logistic regression analysis was carried out with the occurrence of MACE as the dependent variable and anxiety and depression as independent variables to further analyze the relationship between MACE and negative emotions. Results In 120 patients with coronary heart disease after PCI, 45 patients with anxiety and 40 patients with depression. The incidence of MACE in patients with anxiety and depression after PCI was higher than that of patients without anxiety and depression, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that combined anxiety and combined depression are independent risk factors for MACE after PCI. Conclusion The detection rate of anxiety and depression after PCI is high, and it will increase the risk of MACE after PCI. Psychological intervention after PCI should be strengthened to reduce the risk of MACE.
