NCT ID NCT07274865
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study will ask 380 heart patients and healthcare workers at Assiut University Heart Hospital to fill out questionnaires about depression, anxiety, stress, and burnout. No treatments or changes are given—the goal is simply to find out how common these mental health problems are in this setting. The results may help design better support programs in the future.
