Neuropsychiatric disorders in patients with heart failure: not to be ignored

Heart Failure Reviews Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Among various neuropsychiatric disorders, depression and anxiety are commonly encountered in patients with heart failure (HF), reported in ≥ 50% of patients attending a HF clinic, but may frequently elude clinician’s attention. Both disorders are associated with the development and progression of HF, incurring higher rates of morbidity/mortality, probably via physiologic and behavioral mechanisms. Patients with devices and/or advanced HF are more severely affected, especially early following device receipt. In addition, various other neuropsychiatric and neuropsychological disorders and symptoms of these and other disorders occur in and impact HF patients, including sleep disorders and cognitive impairment, which further interact with and amplify depression and anxiety. Mechanisms involved in the link between neuropsychiatric/neuropsychological disorders and HF may relate to pathophysiological processes, lifestyle factors, and behavioral patterns. Among the pathophysiological factors, inflammation, autonomic dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction, thrombotic mechanisms, and dysregulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis may play a significant role as they are implicated in the pathogenesis, progression, and prognosis of HF. Multimodal psychiatric management strategies with flexible approaches, using antidepressants/anxiolytics/atypical antipsychotics and various psychotherapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy combined with exercise adjusted to patients’ care and needs, appear promising in this patient group. Choosing agents with a higher efficacy/safety profile is a prudent strategy. Although depression and anxiety are risk factors for mortality in HF patients, indiscriminate use of psychiatric medications may not improve or even worsen survival when one neglects to closely monitor for potential proarrhythmic and other side effects. Newer meta-analytic data in HF patients indicate no increase in mortality for newer antidepressants, while secondary analyses show improved survival in patients who achieved remission of depressive symptoms.
