Effects of transtheoretical model on patients after percutaneous coronary intervention

Abstract

Objective To explore the effects of transtheoretical model on patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) . Methods Totally 200 patients who received PCI and 1-4 cardiovascular stents in the 4 wards of the Department of Cardiology, Tenth People's Hospital of Shanghai between March and September 2018 were selected by convenient sampling and divided into the control group (n=100) and the intervention group (n=100) according to the random number table. The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used to evaluate the effects of intervention. Results The total SF-36 score, overall physical health score and overall mental health score were (84.17±15.67) , (80.56±15.76) and (84.93±15.66) , respectively after the intervention, higher than those of the control group (t=-21.44, -21.063, -34.729; P<0.001) , which were (62.58±13.24) , (63.87±12.34) and (62.69±10.45) , respectively. Conclusions The transtheoretical model used in follow-up visits after PCI helps to improve patients' quality of life, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.
