Integrative Psychocardiology: Strategies for Managing Mental and Cardiac Risks in Oncology Patients

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: A Holistic Approaches to Mitigate Mental and Cardiac Health Risks in Cancer Patients are discussed. Cardiovascular problems are notable adverse consequences of cancer therapies, encompassing chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy. Psychocardiology emphasizes the importance of a multidisciplinary strategy that incorporates oncologists, cardiologists, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals. Psychocardiology examines the impact of psychological factors, including stress, anxiety, and depression—prevalent among oncology patients—on the exacerbation of cardiovascular risks. Investigations in psychocardiology are enhancing our comprehension of the molecular and behavioral pathways that connect mental, cardiac, and oncological health.
