Insights
Multidimensional comprehensive intervention significantly improved medication adherence and social function in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This approach also reduced major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), enhancing overall quality of life.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Nursing Science
- Public Health
Background:
- Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a common procedure for coronary heart disease (CHD).
- Post-PCI patients require comprehensive management to improve outcomes and prevent adverse events.
- Medication compliance and social function are critical factors influencing long-term prognosis.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the impact of a multidimensional comprehensive intervention on medication compliance.
- To assess the effect of this intervention on social function and quality of life.
- To determine the influence of the intervention on the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in PCI patients.
Main Methods:
- A study involving 98 patients with CHD who underwent PCI.
- Patients were divided into a regular nursing intervention group (n=46) and a multidimensional comprehensive nursing intervention group (n=52).
- Key outcomes measured included medication compliance, social function (using SDSS), quality of life, and MACE incidence.
Main Results:
- The comprehensive group demonstrated significantly higher medication compliance rates (on time, correct dosage, adherence to schedule, no interruption) compared to the regular group (P < 0.05).
- Social Disability Screening Schedule (SDSS) scores significantly decreased in both groups post-intervention, with greater improvement in the comprehensive group (P < 0.05).
- The comprehensive group showed superior improvements in physiological, psychological, cognitive, emotional, and role functions, alongside total quality of life scores (P < 0.05), and a significantly lower incidence of MACE (P < 0.05).
Conclusions:
- Multidimensional comprehensive intervention is effective in enhancing medication compliance among PCI patients.
- This intervention strategy significantly improves social function and overall quality of life post-PCI.
- Implementing multidimensional comprehensive care can effectively reduce the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients undergoing PCI.
Objective:
To analyze the effect of multidimensional comprehensive intervention on medication compliance, social function and incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods:
Ninety-eight patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) who underwent PCI in our hospital were selected and divided into the regular group (n=46, receiving regular nursing intervention) and the comprehensive group (n=52, receiving multidimensional comprehensive nursing intervention) according to the different nursing intervention methods. The medication compliance, social function, quality of life, and incidence of MACE were compared between the two groups.
Results:
The comprehensive group showed significantly higher rates of taking medication on time, taking medication according to the proper amount, taking medication at the recomended times, no increase or decrease in the amount of medication, and taking medication without interruption than the regular group (P < 0.05). The comprehensive group exhibited significantly higher scores of medication compliance than the regular group (P < 0.05). The Social Disability Screening Schedule (SDSS) scores of both groups during intervention for 8 weeks were lower than those before intervention and after intervention for 2 and 4 weeks (P < 0.05). The SDSS scores of intervention for 2, 4, and 8 weeks in the comprehensive group were significantly lower than that in the regular group (P < 0.05). After intervention, the comprehensive group showed significantly higher scores of physiological function, psychological function, cognitive function, emotional function, role function, and total quality of life than the regular group (P < 0.05). The incidence of MACE in the comprehensive group was significantly lower than that in the regular group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion:
The use of multidimensional comprehensive intervention for patients undergoing PCI can effectively improve patients' medication compliance, social function and quality of life, and reduce the incidence of MACE.
