Objectives: This study aimed to assess the severity of depressive symptoms and identify factors associated with depressive symptoms among hypertensive patients at the Cardiology Department, Vietnam-Cuba Friendship Hospital, Dong Hoi, Quang Binh.
Participants and Method: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 294 hypertensive patients aged ≥18 years, who had been diagnosed and treated for at least three months based on the Vietnamese classification of hypertension. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was used to assess depressive symptoms. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 16.0, with t-tests and ANOVA applied to examine associations between depression symptoms and relevant factors (p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant).
Results: The findings revealed that 46.5% of hypertensive patients exhibited depressive symptoms, with an average PHQ-9 score of 10.11 ± 5.13. Among them, 26.5% had mild depressive symptoms, 13.9% had moderate symptoms, and 6.1% had severe depression. Significant factors associated with depressive symptoms included age, gender, marital status, duration of hypertension treatment, and comorbidities (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: Nearly one in two hypertensive patients exhibited depressive symptoms, with the average severity classified as mild. These findings emphasize the importance of integrating routine depression screening into hypertensive patient care. Healthcare providers, especially nurses, should actively monitor the psychological well-being of hypertensive patients and implement targeted interventions to enhance overall patient outcomes.
