本研究的目的是评估压力管理训练对纽约心脏协会 I-III 级充血性心力衰竭 (CHF) 老年患者的生活质量、功能能力和心率变异性的影响。虽然对冠心病患者的压力管理训练有大量研究，但关于心理社会训练对心力衰竭患者的价值的数据却很少。 33 名多种族患者（平均年龄，66+/-9 岁）通过不完全随机分配到两个治疗组之一或等待名单上的对照组。完成治疗的 14 名参与者在 10 周内参加了 8 次培训课程。该培训包括 75 分钟的课程，改编自 HeartMath 研究所开发的 Freeze-Frame 压力管理计划。受试者在基线时接受评估，并在培训完成后再次评估。评估抑郁、压力管理、乐观、焦虑、情绪困扰、功能能力以及心率变异性。显着改进（p
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of stress management training on quality of life, functional capacity, and heart rate variability in elderly patients with New York Heart Association class I-III congestive heart failure (CHF). While substantial research exists on stress management training for patients with coronary heart disease, there are few data on the value of psychosocial training on patients with CHF. Thirty-three multiethnic patients (mean age, 66+/-9 years) were assigned through incomplete randomization to one of two treatment groups or a wait-listed control group. The 14 participants who completed the treatment attended eight training sessions during a 10-week period. The training consisted of 75-minute sessions adapted from the Freeze-Frame stress management program developed by the Institute of HeartMath. Subjects were assessed at baseline and again at the completion of the training. Depression, stress management, optimism, anxiety, emotional distress, and functional capacity were evaluated, as well as heart rate variability. Significant improvements (p
