Study Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of physical and mental disorder in the population of patients with myocardial bridge and to describe the relationship between clinical features and the occurrence of somatic disorder.

Detailed Description

Myocardial bridge (MB), a congenital cardiac anomaly, is an unignored contribution to chest pain. Patients with MB often complain about chest discomfort more serious than the degree of vessel compression. The symptoms are also often inconsistence with the degree of coronary stenosis. Reports suggested that patients with MB may companioned with depression and anxiety. Moreover, patients with MB often have other systemic complaints including stomach pain, pain on the back, ear blockage, et al. Investigators assume that somatic symptom disorder (SSD) may play a part in aggregating the severity of symptoms. In order to screen SSD, investigators previously developed the Somatic Symptom Scale-China (SSS-CN) questionnaire. It is a somatic and psychological symptom scale which was developed based on the DSM-5 to assess a combination of psychological, behavioral and somatic symptoms. It is designed to assess the presence and severity of the symptoms. Investigators have validated its reliability and validity in a previous study. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of physical and mental disorder in the population of patients with MB and to describe the relationship between clinical features and the occurrence of somatic disorder.

  • underwent cardiac angiography.
  • agree to participate.

Exclusion Criteria

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

the score of Somatic Symptom Scale-China (SSS-CN)

Time Frame: within 24 hours before the coronary angiography.

to compare the score of Somatic Symptom Scale-China questionnaire between patients with and without myocardial bridge. SSS-CN is a self-administered questionnaire with 20 items and scoring 1, 2, 3, 4 to each item. The total score is from 20 to 80. The higher the score is, the higher frequency that the symptoms presented.
