The control group received routine postdischarge care. The study group received postdischarge follow-up nursing intervention. After 3 months of postdischarge intervention, the psychological quality of patients in two groups was assessed by the emotion application measure scale separately. The Morisky Medication Adherence Scale 8-item version (MMAS 8-item version) was used for the assessment of the medication compliance of the two groups of patients.
