Abstract：Objective To analyze the relationship between psychological pressure and ventricular arrhythmias (VA) in young and middle-aged hypertension patients. Methods The young and middle-aged hypertension patients diagnosed for the first time (n=120, male 80, female 40 and aged from 18 to 50) were chosen from Beijing Friendship Hospital affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences from Jan. 2015 to June 2016. All patients were divided into VA group (n=36) and control group (n=84). And then they were followed up and asked to complete self-rating somatization symptom scale (SSSS), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depressive scale (SDS) at regular intervals. Results Compared with control group, the scores of SSSS [(33.8±8.9) vs. (51.2±13.5)], SDS [(31.5±8.6) vs. (53.2±12.8)] and SAS [(34.8±6.8) vs. (56.3±15.5)] all increased in VA group (all P<0.05). Conclusion It is importantly significant for preventing VA to early review psychological pressure in young and middle-aged hypertension patients.
