Abstract: Objective To explore the application value of continuing care in patients with coronary heart disease after PCI in rural areas. Methods A total of 120 patients with coronary heart disease in rural areas who underwent PCI in our hospital from February 2017 to February 2018 were selected and randomly divided into general nursing group and continuing care group, with 60 cases in each group. The general nursing group was given routine clinical nursing intervention, and the continuing care group was given continuing care on this basis. The patients' quality of life was evaluated by quality of life evaluation table, the patients' sleep quality was evaluated by PSQI scale, the patients' psychological depression was assessed by HAMD scale, and the patients' anxiety was assessed by HAMA scale. The incidence of complications and the satisfaction of family members were compared between the two groups. Results The scores of quality of life in patients with continuing care after nursing were higher than those in general nursing group, with statistical significance (P<0.05); the scores of sleep quality in patients with continuing care after nursing were lower than those in general nursing group, with statistical significance (P<0.05); and the scores of HAMA and HAMD in patients with continuing care after nursing were lower than those in general nursing group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The incidence of complications in the continuing care group was lower than that in the general care group, with statistical significance (P<0.05); the total satisfaction rate of family members in the continuing care group was significantly higher than that in the general care group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Continuous care for patients with coronary heart disease after PCI in rural areas can significantly improve their quality of life and sleep, relieve their negative emotions, reduce the incidence of complications, and make their families more satisfied.
