Abstrakt: Besides being one of the causes of death in the world, adult congenital heart disease sufferers seem to be forgotten and neglected from what is called depression and anxiety. Not much has been described about depressive psychopathology in adult congenital heart disease patients. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors associated with depressive syndrome in congenital heart disease patients. This cross-sectional study was conducted by 97 adult congenital heart disease patients recruited sequentially, consisting of 8 independent variables and 1 dependent variable. Depression scores were assessed using the BDI-II measuring instrument. Most sexes were female, with as many as 59 subjects (60.2 %). The most marital status was 66 subjects (67.3 %). The most occupations were those who worked as many as 70 subjects (71.4 %), the most previous history of surgery/intervention were those who did not have a history of prior surgery/intervention as many as 56 subjects (57.1 %), the most comorbid diseases were those who did not have a history of comorbid diseases as many as 86 subjects (87.8 %), age with a median value of 33 (18 - 45), the median value of education for adult CHD patients was 15 (12 - 18), the median NYHA grade value of adult CHD patients is 2 (1 - 4). The characteristics of patients who are highly educated, NYHA classmates, and who have jobs should be a concern because they will be more likely to experience depressive syndrome.
