Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effect of evidence-based nursing intervention in elderly patients with arrhythmia after acute myocardial infarction. Methods: 146 elderly patients with arrhythmia after acute myocardial infarction treated in our hospital from February 2016 to March 2017 were selected as research objects. According to the random number method, patients were divided into control group (73 cases, traditional nursing) and observation group (73 cases, evidence-based nursing intervention). The clinical effects and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared. Results: The hospital stay, average bed rest time, hospitalization cost, and incidence of arrhythmia complications in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). After nursing, the four grades of heart function and satisfaction of nursing in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions: In elderly patients with arrhythmia after acute myocardial infarction, evidence-based nursing intervention was adopted. The patient's health has been greatly improved and the doctor-patient relationship has been significantly improved. This method is worth promoting.
