Result: Comparing functional correlation interrelations between quality of life indicators in two groups with high cardiovascular risk (less 1%) and high (more 1%), converse correlation relationships were detected between indicator �?P (pain) and �?Н (psychological health), which was r=-0.53 in the first group and r=-0.71 in the second group, which can indicate on weakening of psychological health in case of increased pain. Correlation relationship between indicator �?P (pain) and VT (viability), equal to r=-0.55 in the first group and r=-0.62 in the second group, can provide evidence of vital activity reduction in case of pain intensity increase. Conclusion: Depression in persons with high cardiovascular risk affects such indicators of quality of life as psychological health and viability.
