Background:
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most common critical illness clinically. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can help patients with AMI by reopening their blocked blood vessels and improving clinical symptoms. Clinical practice has confirmed that rehabilitation training after PCI could significantly promote the recovery of patients' heart function, reduce cardiovascular events, and have a positive significance for prognosis. This study aimed to explore the effect of kinetic energy progressive exercise (PEKE) applied to patients with AMI after PCI.
Methods:
From April 2019 to April 2020, a total of 98 patients with AMI after PCI in our hospital were randomly allocated to PEKE group and routine intervention (RI) group. The RI group adopted routine intervention, while the PEKE group introduced PEKE intervention on the basis of the RI group. The incidence of adverse events (AEs), motor function, cardiac function, and quality of life (QoL) before and after intervention were compared between the two groups.
Results:
Compared with the RI group, the incidence of AEs in the PEKE group was significantly reduced (χ2=4.404, P=0.036). After 6 months of intervention, the maximum exercise load and metabolic equivalent of the PEKE group were greater than those of the RI group (t=7.114, 4.565; P=0.000, 0.000). After 6 months of intervention, the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of the PEKE group was greater than that of the RI group (t=6.826, P=0.000), and there were no significant differences in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV) compared with the RI group (t=1.253, 1.147; P=0.213, 0.254). After 6 months of intervention, the PEKE group's symptoms, physical function, cognitive function, psychosocial function, and satisfaction scores were greater than those in the RI group (t=5.991, 4.612, 7.165, 5.731, 5.468; P=0.000, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000).
Conclusions:
We applied PEKE was to AMI patients with after PCI, and it was shown to effectively reduce AEs, improve the patients' exercise ability and cardiac function, and improve their QoL.

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
