Abstract
The objective was to assess health-related quality of life in patients with cardiovascular disease. A cross-sectional study was conducted at a primary care institution in 2023. The EQ-5D-5L scale was administered to participants in the cardiovascular risk program. Dimensions and the visual analogue scale were analyzed according to the presence of specific conditions. A total of 2,282 individuals participated. Among patients with hypertension and diabetes, self-care was the least affected dimension, while in those with kidney disease, mobility and self-care showed less deterioration. Patients with two conditions presented better scores in self-care and mobility. The coexistence of all three conditions was associated with greater impairment in mobility and lower scores on the visual analogue scale. Hypertension and diabetes, when occurring alone, were associated with lower levels of anxiety and depression. In conclusion, quality of life is negatively affected by cardiovascular diseases, particularly when accompanied by kidney disease.
