Objective To integrate the Timing It Right(TIR)framework with Phase Ⅰ Cardiac Rehabilitation(CR)strategies to develop a staged,individualized rehabilitation protocol for patients after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement(TAVR)and verify its clinical effectiveness.Methods A quasi-experimental study design was employed.A total of 128 TAVR patients admitted to Kunming Yan'an Hospital between January 2023 and December 2024 were selected as participants and randomly assigned via a random number table to either an intervention group(n=64)or a control group(n=64).The control group received routine care,while the intervention group received TIR theory-based Phase Ⅰ cardiac rehabilitation nursing care in addition to routine care.This intervention was implemented across three stages:diagnostic,perioperative,and discharge preparation period.Comparisons were made between the two groups regarding Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction(LVEF),the 6-Minute Walk Test(6MWT)distance,the incidence of Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events(MACCE),scores across all domains of the China Questionnaire of Quality of Life in patients with Cardiovascular Diseases(CQQC),and patient satisfaction before and after the intervention.Results After the intervention,the intervention group demonstrated significantly higher LVEF and 6MWT results at both discharge and 3 months postoperatively compared to the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of MACCE was significantly lower in the intervention group(4.84%)than in the control group(13.33%).Scores across all CQQC domains and patient satisfaction were significantly superior in the intervention group than in the control group(P<0.05).Furthermore,The length of ICU stay and total hospitalization duration were significantly shorter in the intervention group compared to the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Phase I cardiac rehabilitation nursing care based on the Timing It Right theory effectively improves cardiac function and exercise tolerance in TAVR patients,reduces the risk of MACCE.

Aim To investigate the mechanisms in protecting HUVEC against ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury directed by curcumin.Methods Hypoxia/reoxgenation(H/R) model was established on HUVEC.MTT colorimetric assay was used to observe the injury degree of hypoxia and reoxygenation at the different time.With preconditioning by different concentration of Cur,the survival rate of HUVEC subjected to H/R was assessed by MTT colorimetric assay.Pretreated with Cur(5 ?mol?L-1),the expression of LC3,cathepsin B,cathepsin L,Bax and Bcl-2 were observed by fluorescent staining and Western blot in HUVEC during H/R process.Results Cur(1.25~5 ?mol?L-1) played a protective role during H/R in HUVEC in a dose-dependent manner.During H/R,the expressions of LC3,cathepsin B and the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 increased,and the nuclear translocation of cathepsin L was induced;when cur was pretreated,LC3 was furtherstrengthened,at the same time,the up-regulation of cathepsin B,the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 and the nuclei-location of cathepsin L were inhibited partly by Cur.Conclusions Cur can raise the survival rate of HUVEC in the process of H/R.Cur increases the autophagy activity,depresses cathepsins and Bax/Bcl-2 to protect the endothelial cells.
