Severe Mental Health Disorders Increase Risk Of Death In Men With Heart Failure

Men with heart failure have worse long-term survival rates if they have severe mental illness (SMI) defined as severe depression, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia. Seven years after heart failure, men with SMI were 36% more likely to die from any cause than those without SMI. The risk of death over 10 years increased from 54.8% in men without SMI, to 64.3% for men with SMI. There is no major difference in risk of death between women with and without SMI.
