Abstract:
Objective To explore the impact of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on heart-focused anxiety in patients with tachyarrhythmias. Methods A cross-sectional study design was conducted. 305 patients with tachyarrhythmias who attended the department of cardiology of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University in Shanghai from July 2025 to December 2025 were enrolled as the research subjects, and clinical data of patients were collected. Univariate analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis were used to analyze the impact of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on patients’ heart-focused anxiety. Results The mean score of heart-focused anxiety in the 305 patients with tachyarrhythmias was 33.16±9.70. Among them, 104(34.10%) patients used wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring. The results of univariate analysis and multiple stepwise regression showed that the use of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring was an influencing factor for heart-focused anxiety (P＜0.05), and the patients who used wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring had a significantly lower level of heart-focused anxiety (P＜0.05). Conclusions The use of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring is associated with a lower level of heart-focused anxiety in patients with tachyarrhythmias. Medical staff can guide patients to rationally use wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on the basis of evaluating their needs and device operation capabilities.
