Objective To evaluate the effect of Baduanjin exercise on the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI. Methods A computer was used to search databases such as PubMed, Google scholar, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and Wanfang. Among them, there were randomized controlled trials on Baduanjin Qian and cardiac rehabilitation patients after PCI for acute myocardial infarction. The search time was limited to the time of database establishment. Until December 31, 2023. After researchers independently selected literature, extracted relevant data, and assessed the risk of bias, RevMan5.3 software was used to conduct meta-analysis. Results A total of 17 randomized trials involving 1681 patients were included. Meta-analysis results show that Baduanjin can alleviate patients psychological problems such as anxiety and depression, significantly improve patients cardiac function, improve the stable state of angina pectoris, and reduce the frequency of angina pectoris attacks and the degree of physical limitation. Conclusion Baduanjin can regulate the psychological state of cardiac rehabilitation patients after PCI for acute myocardial infarction and help patients stabilize their condition after treatment. Due to the small number of included studies on intervention measures and evaluation indicators in this study, and the heterogeneity of some outcome indicators, it is necessary to further evaluate the effectiveness of Baduanjin in PCI surgery for acute myocardial infarction through multi-center, large-sample, and high-quality studies in the future. Effects of use in post-cardiac rehabilitation patients.
