Abstract:
Objective:To explore influencing factors of quality of life (QOL)in aged patients with coronary heart disease (CHD)and perform correlation analysis among quality of life and its influencing factors.Methods:A total of 70 aged CHD patients treated in our hospital from 2011 to 2015 were selected and followed up.All patients received evaluation of Chinese Questionnaire of Quality of life in Chinese patients with cardiovascular diseases (CQQC ). CQQC score was compared between patients with different gender,age,course of disease,body mass index (BMI) and number of complications.Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between influencing factors of QOL and CQQC score.Results:There was no significant difference in CQQC score between male and fe- male patients (P=0.697).CQQC scores of patients with age 60~70 years,course of disease <15 years,BMI<30 kg/m2 and no complications were significantly higher than those of patients with age 71~87 years,course of disease>15 years,BMI>30 kg/m2 and complications,P<0.01 all.Spearman correlation analysis indicated that age (r=-0.621),course of disease (r=-0.691)and BMI (r=-0.655)were significant inversely correlated with CQQC score,P<0.01 all.Fourfold table chi-square test found that for percentage of patients with CQQC score >50 scores,scores of 60~70 years were significantly higher than those of>70 years (85.42% vs.31.82%),scores of course of disease <15 years were significantly higher than those of course of disease >15 years (79.55% vs. 3.85%),scores of BMI<30 kg/m2 were significantly higher than those of BMI>30 kg/m2 (62.22% vs.20.00%) in aged CHD patients,P<0.01 all.Conclusion:Quality of life in CHD patients are mainly affected by age,course of disease and body mass index etc.So attention should be paid to follow-up,guiding therapy and intervening lifes- tyle in order to improve patients'quality of life.
