Application progress of nursing intervention in cardiac surgery

Area of Science:

• Cardiology
• Surgical Nursing
• Patient Recovery

Background:

• Cardiac surgery is a significant stressor impacting patient physiology, psychology, and recovery.
• Patients experience anxiety regarding cognitive deficits, pain, mortality risk, and complications.
• Adverse events like circulatory/respiratory dysfunction and infection increase patient burden.

Purpose of the Study:

• To identify and emphasize the importance of appropriate nursing interventions.
• To enhance patient cognitive levels and compliance with postoperative practices.
• To accelerate recovery, minimize complications, and reduce hospital stays.

Main Methods:

• This study focuses on the critical role of nursing interventions in the postoperative cardiac surgery period.
• It reviews factors contributing to patient stress and anxiety.
• It highlights the need for evidence-based nursing strategies.

Main Results:

• Appropriate nursing care can significantly mitigate patient stress and anxiety.
• Interventions can improve cognitive function and adherence to recovery protocols.
• Targeted nursing support leads to faster recovery and fewer complications.

Conclusions:

• Optimizing nursing interventions is essential for improving the postoperative experience and outcomes for cardiac surgery patients.
• Strengthening patient education and support enhances recovery and reduces healthcare costs.
• Nurses play a vital role in patient well-being and successful rehabilitation post-cardiac surgery.
