Abstract

The review is devoted to the topical problem of rehabilitation of patients with cardiovascular diseases, which remain the leading cause of morbidity, disability and mortality in Russia and worldwide. A number of works demonstrating a close relationship between the course and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases and the psycho-emotional sphere of patients were analyzed. International and Russian experts emphasized the importance of timely identification and correction of psychosocial risk factors, in particular, depression, anxiety disorders, psychosocial stressors and others. The question of the need for a multidisciplinary approach to the patient in cardiac rehabilitation programs is raised. Emphasis is placed on the expediency of combining psychocorrection, psychotherapy and psychopharmacotherapy to increase the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures. The leading goals of these interventions are to change the internal picture of the disease, to achieve psychosocial adaptation and to improve the quality of life of patients with chronic cardiac diseases. This approach contributes to the prevention of exacerbations, complications and chronicization of somatic pathology, which improves labor prognosis, reduces the risk of disability and early mortality. Thus, the conducted analysis allows forming a holistic view of the importance of specialized psychological and psychotherapeutic care, the existing methods of correction and pharmacotherapy within the framework of rehabilitation measures in patients with cardiac diseases.
