One-year results of an eHealth intervention on anxiety in patients undergoing abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery: randomized clinical trial Open
Background The longitudinal effects of educational interventions in people with abdominal aortic aneurysm are largely unexplored. This prospective study investigated whether the anxiety-lowering effect of an eHealth intervention observed a…

Early clinical outcomes in men and women undergoing proximal thoracic aortic surgery: A Swedish population-based cohort study Open
Women who underwent proximal thoracic aortic surgery had a 2-fold higher unadjusted 30-day mortality risk, but the mortality risk was not significantly higher when age and comorbidities was taken into consideration.

Registered nurses’ experiences of caring for patients with hypoactive delirium after cardiac surgery − A qualitative study Open
Despite the use of screening tools, nurses still experience challenges in detecting the symptoms of hypoactive delirium, indicating a need for more clinically effective screening tools for hypoactive delirium. Nursing interventions are emp…

Prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in first-degree relatives: detecting AAA in adult offspring of AAA patients Open
Background First-degree relatives of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) may have an increased risk of developing the disease. The primary aim was to report the prevalence of AAA in adult male and female offspring of patients wit…

Suffering in silence – Cardiac surgery patients recalling hypoactive delirium a qualitative descriptive study Open
The challenges in the recognition of hypoactive delirium need to be emphasized because the syndrome is still overlooked. The use of screening tools in clinical practice is essential. A person-centred approach supports relationships between…

Women with large intact abdominal aortic aneurysms remain untreated Open
Surgical AAA management differed between women and men. Women could be underserved in terms of elective repairs: one in every four women was untreated with over-the-threshold AAAs. The lack of obvious gender differences in eligibility anal…

Depression is associated with delirium after cardiac surgery—a population-based cohort study Open
OBJECTIVES Depression is common in patients with cardiac disease, and preoperative depression is associated with worse outcomes after cardiac surgery. Depression is also correlated with postoperative delirium (POD) after major surgery. How…

Risk of depression after coronary artery bypass grafting: a SWEDEHEART population-based cohort study Open
Aims A diagnosis of depression in patients with coronary heart disease is associated with worse outcomes. This study examined the long-term risk for new onset of depression after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) compared to an age- a…

Prognostic impact of depressive symptoms on all-cause mortality in individuals with abdominal aortic aneurysm and in the general population: a population-based prospective HUNT study in Norway Open
Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a potentially life-threatening disease but the high mortality rate is linked to high age and comorbidity pattern. Depression is associated with increased mortality in the general population and…

A randomized clinical trial of an eHealth intervention on anxiety in patients undergoing abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery Open
Background The potential benefit of eHealth interventions in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is uncertain. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effect of an eHealth intervention on anxiety in patients with AAA…

Sex Differences in Rupture Risk and Mortality in Untreated Patients With Intact Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms Open
Background Studies on intact abdominal aortic aneurysms mainly focus on treated patients, and data on untreated patients are sparse. The objective was to investigate sex differences among untreated patients regarding rupture and mortality …

Longitudinal changes in depression screening results in cardiac surgery patients Open
We found that twice as many women as men had a positive depression screen at baseline, and that almost 10% of all who were screening negative at baseline, were screening positive after one year. An improvement in depressive symptoms (trans…
