The incidence of depression in ACS patients in the acute phase in various countries is quite high. However, in Indonesia, it is not yet known what the results of the depression assessment are.&nbsp;This study aims to determine the level of depression in ACS patients undergoing treatment in a cardiac intensive unit.&nbsp;This research is a quantitative study with a descriptive design using a cross-sectional approach. The study population was the patients with ACS who underwent treatment in the intensive cardiac unit at Dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung Hospital. The number of samples was 84 respondents who were taken by purposive sampling. Data collection using the Cardiac Depression Scale instrument has been tested the Pearson Product Moment statistic with a significance of 1% and r results from 0.317 to 0.703. while Chronbach's Alpha value was 0.873.&nbsp;The majority of respondents were male (75%) and ≤60 years old (64.3%), married (83.3%), and with the majority being Sundanese (79.8%).&nbsp;Respondents in this study experienced mild-moderate depression (21.4%), severe (14.3%), and some others were not depressed (64.3%). The depression level of the majority of patients was in the moderate to severe category. It is necessary to screen for depression as early as possible so that increased nursing care for depression prevention. &nbsp;</p><br/>The following message is being delivered on behalf of Jurnal Keperawatan.
