Abstract
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has increasingly been used in management of coronary artery diseases (CAD). Coupled that with an increasing incidence rate of CAD has augmented the hospital burden with consequential post-PCI patient management problems and dissatisfaction. Nursing care has a key role to play in upgrading the healthcare services and raising patients’ satisfaction through enhanced patient education and engagement. In this regard, nursing-led intervention has shown some success in three main domains: risk reduction; psychological improvement; and quality of life. Urgent efforts are needed to formulize a structured follow-up with enhanced nursing role in post-PCI management to raise quality of healthcare.
