Core Tip	Treatment resistant depression (TRD) was associated with increased mortality in post-myocardial infarction (MI) patients with depression. Conversely, effective treatment of depression with cognitive behavioral therapy with or without medication decreased mortality in post-MI patients who were depressed. Since TRD post-MI patients are at higher risk for mortality, closer follow-up and more aggressive treatment for depression and risk factor modification is needed to improve patient outcome. It is important to monitor the effectiveness of depression treatment and change treatments if necessary to reduce depression and improve cardiac outcomes in post-MI patients with depression.
