A comprehensive nursing intervention including health education and psychological counseling significantly improves health-related behaviors and emotional expression in patients undergoing cardiac radiofrequency ablation.
Supports adoption of structured nursing interventions post-ablation; extends RCT evidence for behavioral support in arrhythmia care.
Objective To investigate the impact of nursing intervention on patients with cardiac radiofrequency ablation.Methods 50 patients with arrhythmia undergoing cardiac radiofrequency ablation were randomly divided into intervention group and control group,25 for each group.The control group received conventional care,while the intervention group received nursing process of health education behavioral interventions including preoperative psychological counseling with patience,intraoperative detailed care intervention,postoperative complications observation,and education of the disease in addition to the conventional care.A questionnaire survey was used to assess the psychological status in all the patients on discharge.The educational intervention group were consolidated and the effects were evaluated at the same time.The disease-related knowledge,self-care knowledge,health-related behavior,physical exercise,and emotional performance were observed.Results The health-related behavior (P<0.01),and emotional expression (P<0.05) were significantly better in of the intervention group than in the control group,with significant statistical differences.Conclusions Nursing program on health education is better to improve health knowledge,effectively alleviate the psychological pressure in patients with intense anxiety and fear,improve the success rate of surgery,reduce the recurrence rate,mortality rate,eliminate the occurrence of surgical complications,and improve quality of life in patients,and promote rehabilitation of the disease.A new doctor-nurse relationship is established.The efficiency of nursing and the professional levels are improved.
