The ‘cardiac blues’, include anxiety, anger, tearfulness and frequent nightmares - an emotional rollercoaster!
Just hosted an amazing #SCAD patient day Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute with SCAD Research Aus. Thanks to all the #SCAD survivors, and to SCAD Research Aus for the donation to our #SCAD and #SCAD heartattacks research!

This #WorldMentalHealthDay2023 we wanted to highlight the significant impact a #cardiac event can have on #mentalhealth , and why understanding and addressing mental health issues is an important step in improving your heart health. AusHeartHealth #MentalHealthAwareness ❤️
SCAD is an increasingly recognized cause of AMI & while considered to be stressful, few studies have quantified SCAD survivor stress levels. Here, Dr. Murphy et al. compare anxiety, depression, & distress levels in SCAD vs non-SCAD AMI pts: bit.ly/48fQ2lB Barbara Murphy
Very useful scientific statement on the use of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) for cardiovascular clinical practice. Great to see that our newly developed Cardiac Distress Inventory is recognised as a disease-specific PRO.Barbara Murphy

SCAD: challenging, under-recognised form of heart attack … Dr Barbara Murphy et al write #freeaccess in InSight+ … 'SCAD is an increasingly recognised cause of ACS and sudden cardiac death in people without classic cardiac risk factors' ... insightplus.mja.com.au/2022/40/scad-c… #medtwitter
Survivors of #SCAD heart attacks often feel fearful and uncertain of their future. Prof Bob Graham’s PLOS ONE study with Barbara Murphy and Prof Alun Jackson at Australian Centre for Heart Health calls for SCAD-specific rehab + more psychological support: victorchang.edu.au/news/scad-surv…
So excited to be awarded a Heart Foundation #Vanguard grant to develop and pilot an online support group for #scad survivors with our Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute colleagues. AusHeartHealth
