Does a nurse-led cardiac rehabilitation programme improve health behaviours and cardiac physiological risk parameters in patients with coronary heart disease?
A nurse-led hospital-home bridging cardiac rehabilitation program improves health behaviors and physiological risk parameters in patients with coronary heart disease.
This study raises attention regarding the important roles nurses can play in cardiac rehabilitation and the unique way for nurses to meet the rehabilitative care needs of coronary heart disease patients. Furthermore, the hospital-home bridging nature of the programme also created a model for interfacing the acute care and community rehabilitative care.
