Application effect of high-quality nursing on patients with coronary heart disease

Objective: This study aimed to identify the application effect of high-quality nursing on patients with coronary heart disease.

Methods: We recruited 112 patients with coronary heart disease who were admitted to our hospital over the period of December 2015 to June 2017. We randomly assigned 56 patients to the control group and 56 patients to the experimental group. The control group received conventional nursing, and the control group received high-quality nursing. Emotional changes, nursing satisfaction, compliance, and living quality of two groups were observed and compared.

Results: The two groups reported lower anxiety scores after nursing intervention than before nursing intervention. The anxiety score of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The experimental group reported significantly higher nursing satisfaction than the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the experimental exhibited better compliance behaviors, such as taking medicines in accordance with medical advice, maintaining a reasonable diet, performing appropriate exercise, and emotional stability (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the experimental group had better living quality, in terms of physiological function, social function, rational drug use, standard diet, and self-monitoring (P<0.05).

Conclusions: High-quality nursing changes unhealthy emotions, increases compliance behaviors and nursing satisfaction, and improves living quality of patients with coronary heart disease. Therefore, high-quality nursing is worthy of clinical references and applications.
