Abstract:
Objective: To explore the therapeutic effect of early rehabilitation on aged patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated heart failure (HF). Methods: According to number table method, a total of 168 AMI cases were randomly divided into early rehabilitation group (n=84, received early rehabilitation protocol) and routine treatment group (n=84, received traditional treatment). Incidence rate of complication, bicycling test and walking test result were compared between two groups at the end of rehabilitation program. Results: There were no significant difference in angina pectoris after myocardial infarction, re-infarction, dead cases during hospitalization and left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）etc. between two groups (P>0.05 all). Compared with routine treatment group, there were significant rise in completion rates of bicycling test (77.6% vs. 95.0%) and walking test (65.4% vs. 95.8%) at the end of program in early rehabilitation group, P<0.01 both. Incidence rates of complications caused by long-term lying in bed in early rehabilitation group were significantly lower than those of routine treatment group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion: It’s safe and beneficial to perform early rehabilitation protocol in aged patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated heart failure (35%
