Objective:
To outline the clinical-epidemiological profile of patients submitted to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in a Reference Hospital in Urgent Cardiology Clinic of the state of Rio Grande do Norte.
Method:
This is a descriptive, exploratory, prospective study with a quantitative approach developed in a Brazilian University Hospital with patients submitted to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. Data collection occurred between April and October 2017.
Results:
The sample consisted of 222 patients, of whom 58.10% underwent Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and 41.89% were primary, 65.3% males, with a mean age of 62.7. In comorbidities “Hypertension”, “Acute Myocardial Infarction”, “Current Smoking” and “Physical Inactivity” were highlighted.
Conclusion:
In the elective patients, there was a high prevalence of risk factors and in patients with urgent cases, high time of total ischemia. It is necessary to create strategies to structure the care line, to improve the effectiveness of treatment and to minimize adverse outcomes.

Objective:
To evaluate the long-term results of an educational program compared to usual care.
Method:
A longitudinal study in which 56 participants from a previous study (randomized controlled clinical trial) were evaluated twelve months after the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was assessed by the Medical Outcomes Study: 36-item Short Form (SF-36), and anxiety and depression symptoms were assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). A repeated measures analysis of variance was performed (significance level 0.05).
Results:
Participants in the educational program showed improvement of HRQoL in the Role-Emotional domain, while those in the usual care did not present changes (p=0.05). Both groups showed improvement in the Role-Physical (p = 0.001) and Bodily Pain (p=0.01) domains over time. There were no differences in the symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Conclusion:
One year after the PCI, there were significant differences between groups only for the Role-Emotional domain of the SF-36.

Objective:
to assess the association between perceived health status and the mental health of patients submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention after hospital discharge.
Method:
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.
Conclusion:
Participants with no anxiety and depression presented better-perceived health status in comparison with those with anxiety or depression, or both.
