Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Nursing
  • Health Services Research
  • Practice Development

Background:

  • Patients awaiting cardiac surgery often present with unmanaged coronary heart disease risk factors.
  • Existing care models may not adequately address these modifiable risk factors pre-operatively.
  • There is a need for innovative approaches to optimize patient health before cardiac procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a nurse-led shared care scheme for patients awaiting cardiac surgery.
  • To assess the impact of this scheme on the prevalence of uncorrected coronary heart disease risk factors.
  • To illustrate the translation of research findings into tangible practice development.

Main Methods:

  • A randomized controlled trial was conducted to compare the intervention group with a control group.

  • The intervention involved a nurse-led shared care scheme focused on risk factor management.
  • Data collection likely included assessment of key coronary heart disease risk factors.

    • Main Results:

    • The intervention group showed statistically significant improvements in coronary heart disease risk factors compared to the control group.
    • The nurse-led shared care model proved effective in modifying risk factors pre-operatively.
    • This highlights the positive impact of targeted nursing interventions.

    Conclusions:

    • Nurse-led shared care is an effective strategy for managing coronary heart disease risk factors in patients awaiting cardiac surgery.
    • Research findings can be successfully translated into practice development initiatives.
    • Optimizing pre-operative risk factors can potentially improve surgical outcomes and long-term cardiovascular health.
