Abstract:
Objective:To explore the current status and correlation of physical activity and exercise ability in patients after coronary heart disease surgery.Methods:A retrospective research method was used to analyze the case data of 230 postoperative coronary heart disease patients who were admitted to the Heart Rehabilitation Center of a Class Ⅲ Grade A cardiovascular disease hospital in Beijing from January to October 2019. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short (IPAQ-S) was used to measure physical activity, and the Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing was used to measure exercise ability.Results:A total of 85.2% (196/230) of patients with coronary heart disease were in low-medium level of physical activity, and 97.0% (223/230) of patients had reduced exercise ability. The binary Logistic regression showed that age, medical insurance type, smoking history and peak loqd were the influencing factors of physical activity in patients after coronary heart disease surgery ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Most patients after coronary heart disease have insufficient physical activity and reduced exercise ability. Medical and nursing staff should focus on physical activity health education for patients with older age, medical insurance outside Beijing, and a history of smoking, and formulate scientific and personalized physical activity intervention measures. There is a positive correlation between the level of physical activity and exercise ability. Increasing the exercise ability of patients after coronary heart disease surgery is of great significance for improving the level of physical activity.
