title: Health status and mental health in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  to assess the association between perceived health status and the mental health of patients submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention after hospital discharge.
  
  
  METHODS
  a quantitative and cross-sectional study involving 101 participants. The following instruments were used: a sociodemographic and clinical characterization instrument, the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Participants were divided into three groups: no anxiety and no depression (G1); anxiety or depression (G2); and both (G3). The ANOVA test was used for the intergroup comparison of means on the SF-36 domains.
  
  
  RESULTS
  There was an association between perceived health status and mental health. The participants in G1 presented higher scores in all SF-36 domains in comparison with participants in G2 and G3.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Participants with no anxiety and depression presented better-perceived health status in comparison with those with anxiety or depression, or both.
