Application effect of task-oriented multi-dimensional nursing intervention in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease and concurrent hypertension
Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to explore the application effect of task-oriented multi-dimensional nursing intervention
in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAD) and concurrent hypertension.
Methodology: The clinical data of 196 patients with CAD and concurrent hypertension in our hospital between January 2019 and January 2022 were retrospectively analysed. The patients receiving task-oriented multi-dimensional nursing were set as study group (n=98), while those given routine nursing as control group (n=98). The two groups were compared in the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) scores, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) scores, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) scores, systolic blood pressure (SBP), treatment compliance and incidence rates of adverse events.
Results: After intervention, study group showed lower HAMA and HAMD scores, SBP and LVEDD, but higher SF-36 scores and LVEF than control group (P<0.05). The treatment compliance rate was higher in control group than that in study group (92.86% vs. 80.61%), while an opposite result was detected in the total incidence rate 5.10% vs. 13.27%, P<0.05).
Conclusion: Multidimensional nursing benefits CAD patients with hypertension, improving emotions, compliance, and quality of life, reducing adverse events, and promoting recovery. Recommended for clinical use.
Keywords: Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease; task-oriented theory; multi-dimensional nursing care; clinical nursing.
