Impact of Early Rehabilitation Nursing on Postoperative Cardiac Function and Quality of Life in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine 2024 April 19
BACKGROUND: Background • Radiofrequency ablation, a widely utilized minimally invasive surgery for atrial fibrillation treatment, has certain latent risks, including a high postoperative recurrence rate and various complications. Therefore, nursing intervention plays a pivotal role in the rehabilitation process after radiofrequency ablation.
BACKGROUND: Objective • This study aims to investigate the impact of rehabilitation nursing on postoperative cardiac function and quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND: Methods • A total of 156 atrial fibrillation patients who underwent radiofrequency ablation and were admitted to our hospital from June 2018 to June 2023 were randomly assigned to either the control group or the research group. The control group received routine nursing, while the research group received early rehabilitation nursing in addition to routine care. A comparative analysis was conducted on cardiac function, hospital stay, incidence of complications, emotional well-being, sleep quality, overall quality of life, and nursing satisfaction between the two groups.
BACKGROUND: Results • In comparison to the control group, the research group exhibited an elevation in left ventricular ejection fraction, along with a reduction in left ventricular end-systolic diameter and left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (P < .05). Moreover, the research group demonstrated a shorter hospital stay and a lower incidence of complications compared to the control group (P < .05). Following nursing intervention, anxiety and depression scores, as well as sleep quality scores, were lower in the research group than in the control group (P < .05). Additionally, quality of life scores and nursing satisfaction were higher in the research group than in the control group (P < .05).
BACKGROUND: Conclusions • Early rehabilitation nursing emerges as a valuable intervention, expediting the recovery of postoperative cardiac function and enhancing the overall quality of life in atrial fibrillation patients. These findings emphasize its clinical significance.
