Abstract:
Objective:To discuss the effect of transitional care on the quality of life ( QOL) and psychology in acute myocardial infarction patients after PCI. Methods:The acute myocardial infarction patients accepted PCI in our university affiliated hospitals were selected and divided into experimental group and control group randomly. The control group received routine care during the period of hospitalization. The experimental group received transi-tional care including home visits, massed learning, telephone follow-up, and the establishment of WeChat and QQ group. The QOL, anxiety, and depression were investigated pre-intervention and six months post-interven-tion to evaluate the effect of transitional care. Results:After transitional care six months later, the QOL scores in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group, SAS and SDS scores were lower in experimental group than those in the control group ( P<0 . 05 ) . Conclusions:Transitional care for acute myocar-dial infarction patients after PCI could improve their QOL, and relieve their anxiety and depression level in different degrees.
