Abstrakt: |
The authors conducted a cross-sectional epidemiological study of a random sample of community-based older adults aged 65 years and older (n=611) to assess the impact of psychological resilience on the risk of developing atrial fibrillation (AF). To assess the degree of psychological resilience, the Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC) with 47 and more points was used. The prevalence of AF was 30,1% (n=184). Participants who scored 47 or more on the SOC, after adjusting for all confounders, had a 42,9% lower risk of AF. Thus, psychological resilience is one of the protective factors that reduce the risk of AF in older adults. The use of SOC with a cut-off point of less than 47 allow to identify older adults at risk of AF. |
