Effects of different CT angiography technology-based nursing methods on patients with coronary artery heart diseases

Abstract

To study the nursing effects of different CT angiography (CTA) technology-based nursing methods on patients with coronary artery heart diseases (CHD), CHD patients treated in Dongying People’s Hospital were selected as the research objects and were divided into the control group and the observation group. Different coronary CTA nursing methods, i.e. the routine nursing and the psychological nursing, were performed to the control group and the observation group respectively. During the experiment, patients performed self-evaluations, which included the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS). Biological indicators of patients, including heart rate (HR), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and systolic blood pressure (SBP), were measured before and after patients accepted different nursing methods. In addition, the quality of coronary CTA images was evaluated. The results showed that HR, DBP, SBP, SAS scores, and SDS scores of patients in the observation group were obviously lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant, besides, the image quality of the observation group was significantly greater than that of the control group, which was helpful for diagnosis and had statistical significances. Therefore, it is proved that the psychological nursing of CHD patients can effectively reduce the negative emotions of patients, such as anxiety and depression, which is conducive to CTA and can assist clinical diagnosis. The results provide a basis and ideas for more accurate research in the future.
