Summary

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common cardiovascular condition characterized by the narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries that supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle. CAD represents a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly among individuals aged 40 and older, affecting millions of men and women worldwide. Patients with CAD experience not only physical symptoms but also psychological challenges, including stress and anxiety, which can negatively impact quality of life. In recent years, mindfulness-based interventions have emerged as scientifically supported approaches to help individuals with chronic diseases manage stress and enhance emotional regulation skills. While the existing literature includes studies evaluating the effects of mindfulness-based interventions in CAD and other cardiovascular conditions, most investigations address mixed patient populations and do not thoroughly examine sex-specific differences. Notably, women with CAD may experience symptoms and psychological effects differently than men. Therefore, there is a need for tailored, comprehensive intervention models that address the multidimensional needs of female patients, including stress management, anxiety reduction, and empowerment. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions in women with CAD, providing a targeted approach that addresses both clinical and psychosocial outcomes. The findings are expected to offer valuable insights into improving quality of life and enhancing coping strategies for women living with chronic cardiovascular disease.
