Background Given the association of depression with poorer cardiac outcomes, an American Heart Association Science Advisory has advocated routinly screening cardiac patients for depression using the two-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2) “at a minimum.” Yet, the prognostic value of the PHQ-2 among HF patients is unknown. Methods and Results We screened hospitalized HF patients (ejection fraction (EF) <40%) that staff suspected may be depressed with the PHQ-2, and then determined vital status at up to 12-months follow-up. At baseline, PHQ-2 depression-screen positive patients (PHQ-2 (+); N=371) compared to PHQ-2 screen-negative patients (PHQ-2 (−); N=100) were younger (65 vs. 70), and more likely to report NYHA class III/IV than class II symptoms (67% vs. 39%) and lower levels of physical and mental health-related quality of life (all p ≤ 0.002), but were similar on other characteristics (65% male, 26% mean EF). At 12-months, 20% of PHQ-2 (+) vs. 8% of PHQ-2 (−) patients had died (p=0.007) and PHQ-2 status remained associated with both all-cause (hazard ratio (HR): 3.1 (95% CI: 1.4–6.7); p=0.003) and cardiovascular mortality (HR: 2.7 (1.1–6.6); p=0.03) even after adjustment for age, gender, EF, NYHA class, and a variety of other covariates. Conclusions Among hospitalized HF patients, a positive PHQ-2 depression screen is associated with an elevated 12-month mortality risk.
