ABSTRACT
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.
