ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background

Cardiovascular disease, particularly myocardial infarction (MI), has a profound impact on patient quality of life (QOL) and is a significant burden on healthcare and economic systems. The development of medical technology has led to coronary intervention as a basic treatment for MI.

Research motivation

The importance of cardiac rehabilitation care is gaining increasing attention. Many studies have shown that cardiac rehabilitation care is effective in improving cardiac function and reducing negative emotions in patients with MI.

Research objectives

To assess the impact of cardiac rehabilitation care on cardiac function recovery and negative mood in coronary intervention after MI.

Research methods

The observation group, received cardiac rehabilitation; the control group, received conventional treatment.

Research results

Patients in the observation group showed significant improvements in function indicators, blood pressure, exercise tolerance, occurrence of adverse cardiac events, and negative emotion at the end of the study.

Research conclusions

This study shows that cardiac rehabilitation care can be effective in improving cardiac function and reducing negative emotions in MI patients undergoing coronary intervention. Therefore, it is essential for MI patients to receive timely cardiac rehabilitation care.

Research perspectives

After coronary intervention, a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation care program has significant results on improving physical function and QOL.
