简要总结
Depression and anxiety are highly prevalent in people with heart disease, causing immense human and economic burden. Available pharmacological and psychological interventions have limited efficacy and the needs of these patients are not being met in cardiac rehabilitation services despite emphasis in key NHS policy.
Extensive evidence shows that a particular style of thinking dominated by rumination (dwelling on the past) and worry maintains emotional distress. A psychological intervention called metacognitive therapy (MCT) that reduces this style of thinking alleviates depression and anxiety in mental health settings.
This is a single-blind feasibility randomised controlled trial of metacognitive therapy delivered in a self-help format (Home-MCT). The aim of the study is to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of integrating Home-MCT into cardiac rehabilitation services and to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of Home-MCT.

结局指标
主要结局
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
时间窗: Baseline, 4 months follow up
The HADS is a 14-item self-report scale which evaluates symptoms of anxiety and depression. The HADS consists of two subscales: anxiety and depression. For each item a score is given between 0-3. Subscales scores are calculated by summing selected items on the questionnaire. Scores on each subscale range from 0-21. Scores between 0-7 are within the 'normal' range. Scores between 8- 10 are considered to be 'borderline' cases of psychological distress whilst scores of 11 or more are considered to be significant cases of psychological distress. Higher scores on the HADs indicate greater levels of anxiety or depression.
