Recommendations for Screening, Referral, and Treatment
Conclusions:
The opportunity to screen and treat depression in cardiac patients should not be missed, as effective depression treatment may improve health outcomes
Patients with positive screening results should be evaluated by a professional qualified in the diagnosis and management of depression
Patients with cardiac disease under treatment for depression should be carefully monitored…
Coordination of care between healthcare providers is essential…

Screening for depression in patients with coronary heart disease.*Meets diagnostic criteria for major depression, has a PHQ-9 score of 10–19, has had no more than 1 or 2 prior episodes of depression, and screens negative for bipolar disorder, suicidality, significant substance abuse, or other major psychiatric problems.†Meets the diagnostic criteria for major depression and 1) has a PHQ-9 score ≥20; or 2) has had 3 or more prior depressive episodes; or 3) screens positive for bipolar disorder, suicidality, significant substance abuse, or other major psychiatric problem.‡If “Yes” to Q.9 “suicidal,” immediately evaluate for acute suicidality.

Mild depression and below may only require counseling, relaxation and exercise.

Acute Phase (6-12 weeks)
• Achieve Remission• Choose initial
treatment aimed at inducing major depressive episode remission
• Assess response and side effects
• About 4-8 weeks are needed before concluding partial or no response to intervention
Continuation Phase (4-9 months)
• Preserve Remission
• Continue treatment, monitor for signs of relapse
• Assess side effects, adherence, and functional status
Maintenance Phase
• Minimize Recurrence
• Continue for patients at risk (eg. >3 prior MDEs, presence of residual symptoms)
• Monitor at regular intervals
