ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of minimally invasive clinical pathway in patients after car-diac interventional therapy. Methods One hundred and twenty patients who received cardiac interventional therapy from June 2005 to October 2006 were divided into the control group and the observation group.The control group received routine nursing while the observation group adopted minimally invasive clinical pathway of nursing.The nursing effect in the two groups was compared. Results The mean hospitalized duration, sat-isfaction degree and health knowledge level in the observation group were superior to those of the control group (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions The adoption of minimally invasive clinical pathway in patients after cardiac inter-ventional therapy could increase working efficiency nd ensure the nusing quality.
