Effects of attention to positive and negative and rumination on post traumatic growth in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing interventional therapy / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the level of posttraumatic growth(PTG) in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI), to explore the ruminant, positive/negative information attention to the impact of both on the posttraumatic growth. Methods A study of 360 patients with coronary artery disease was conducted using general information, Event Related Rumination Inventory (ERRI) and Attention to Positive and Negative Information Scale (APNIS) and the Post Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI). Results The Attention to Positive information (API) score was (38.47 ± 9.33) points, and the Attention to Negative Information (ANI) score was (32.99 ± 8.48) points for interventional patients with coronary heart disease, the total score of PTGI was(49.96±19.96)points and the total score of ERRI was (26.52 ± 10.55)points. In PCI patient the PTG and API were positively correlated with rumination (both purposeful and invasive), and PTG was negatively correlated with ANI. The result showed that API, rumination (including deliberate and intrusive) had positive predictive effect on PTG, and ANI had negative predictive effect on PTG, API and ANI respectively had significant interaction with ruminant meditation. Conclusions Patients with coronary artery disease undergoing interventional therapy reported the API was low, the ANI level was higher, the PTG and rumination level was lower. Clinical measures higher, the PTG and rumination level lower. Clinical measures should be taken to guide patients to pay more attention to positive information, to reduce the concern for negative information, and to guide patients to correct reflection in order to promote post-traumatic growth.
