Sumario:AIM: To determine the effect of severity of depression symptoms on self care behavior in 15th and 30th day after myocardial infarction (MI). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Gathering data for this cross sectional study was done by Beck depression and self care behavior questionnaires in a heart especial hospital in Rasht in north of Iran. Sample size was 132 after MI patients and data collected from June 2011 to January 2012. RESULTS: Scores of depression symptoms in 15th and 30th day after MI and score of self care behavior in these days had significant difference (P<0.0001). Spearman test showed self care behavior had significant relationship with depression symptoms (P<0.0001). GEE model also showed with control of socio demographic and illness related factors, depression symptoms can decrease self care behavior scores (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Severity of depression symptoms increase in 15th to 30th day after MI. This issue can affect on self care behavior.
