Background:
Kinesiophobia after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may lead to decreased compliance with rehabilitation exercises. Effective interventions are essential to overcome kinesiophobia after PCI. The aim of this trial is to investigate the clinical effects of an intervention based on the fear-avoidance model (FAM) on kinesiophobia in post-PCI patients.
Methods:
Eighty participants will be recruited in the Department of Cardiology in Hebei Provincial People's Hospital. And they will be randomly allocated to the test group and undergo a 5-day step-to-step intervention. The primary outcome will be the scores of a scale on kinesiophobia. Secondary outcome measures included self-efficacy for exercise, psychogenic anxiety, and the occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events. Primary and secondary outcome data will be collected at baseline (t0), on the day of discharge (t1), and one month after discharge (t2).
Discussion:
The effectiveness of an intervention based on the FAM to increase exercise self-efficacy and decrease kinesiophobia in post-PCI patients will be demonstrated. The findings of this study will facilitate post-PCI patients to participate in cardiac rehabilitation.

Avoidance learning is powerful because it maintains behavior in the absence of the...
