Abstract

This cross-sectional descriptive study was designed to compare fatigue, depression, cardiovascular risk, and self-rated health in community dwelling adults (CDA) without a history of myocardial infarction (MI) compared to adults who had experienced an MI 3 to 7 years ago.

Age-matched controls ( n  = 40) were randomly selected from the Recurrence of Myocardial Infarction (ROMI) study. Most ( N  = 80) were White (66%) with a mean age of 58.3 ( SD  = 11.5; range 21–83). The ROMI group reported more diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and hypertension, and had higher fatigue ( t (61) = 4.51, p
