Abstrakt: Cardiovascular disease is the leading global cause of mortality, with ischemic heart disease causing the majority of cardiovascular deaths. Despite this, diagnostic delay commonly occurs in women experiencing acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who have a higher associated in-hospital mortality. Several studies have demonstrated that women are significantly more likely than men to experience depression and anxiety following AMI which is linked with increased morbidity, rehospitalization, and mortality, as well as decreased quality of life. Thus, it is imperative that future work aims to understand the factors that put women at higher risk for depression and anxiety following AMI, informing prevention and intervention. This narrative review will summarize the current literature on the association between AMI and mental health in women, including the impact on morbidity, mortality, and quality of life.
