Preoperative depression and mortality in coronary artery bypass surgery: Preliminary findings

Background: There is convincing evidence to suggest that depression significantly increases the risk of mortality following myocardial infarction. There are few data concerning depression as a risk factor for mortality following cardiac surgery. The aim of the present observational study was to determine if preoperative depressive symptoms resulted in an increased risk of late mortality following cardiac surgery.
