There are relatively few studies on continuing care of coronary heart disease (CHD), and its research value needs to be further clarified.
To investigate the effect of continuous nursing on treatment compliance and side effect management in patients with CHD.
This is a retrospective study with patients from January 2021 to 2023. The study was divided into two groups with 30 participants in each group. Self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and Self-rating depression scale (SDS) were used to assess patients' anxiety and depression, and medical coping questionnaire was used to assess patients' coping styles. The pelvic floor dysfunction questionnaire (PFDI-20) was used to assess the status of pelvic floor function, including bladder symptoms, intestinal symptoms, and pelvic symptoms.
SAS score decreased from 57.33 ± 3.01before treatment to 41.33 ± 3.42 after treatment, SDS score decreased from 50.40 ± 1.45 to 39.47 ± 1.57. The decrease of these two indexes was statistically significant (P < 0.05). PFDI-20 scores decreased from the mean 16.83 ± 1.72 before treatment to 10.47 ± 1.3the mean after treatment, which was statistically significant (P < 0.05).
The results of this study indicate that pioneering research in continuous care of CHD has a positive impact on improving patients' treatment compliance, reducing anxiety and depression levels, and improving coping styles and pelvic floor functional status.
Core Tip: After the implementation of the pioneering intervention, patients' anxiety and depression levels were significantly reduced, treatment compliance was significantly improved, more positive coping styles, and pelvic floor functional status was significantly improved. In the intervention group, Self-rating Anxiety Scale and Self-rating Depression Scale scores were significantly reduced, the proportion of treatment compliance was significantly increased, the scores of face dimension were increased, the scores of avoidance and obedience dimension were decreased, and the pelvic floor dysfunction questionnaire scores were also significantly decreased. These results show that the intervention has a significant effect on psychological support and treatment coordination, which helps to improve the quality of life of patients and promote the rehabilitation process.
