Objective To explore the application value of a specialized graded nursing team in cardiac rehabilitation for elderly patients with coronary heart disease, focusing on its effects on cardiac function and exercise tolerance. Methods The study spanned one year, from January 2024 to January 2025. Elderly patients with coronary heart disease receiving treatment during this period were selected as subjects, with 80 cases randomly assigned (computer-generated randomization) into two groups: a control group (conventional care, n=40) and an observation group (intervention by a specialized cardiac rehabilitation graded nursing team, n=40). Relevant data indicators were recorded in detail, and the differences in outcomes were compared and analyzed. Results Compared with the control group, the observation group demonstrated superior cardiac function indicators, exercise tolerance, and quality of life scores, with intergroup data differences showing P < 0.05. Conclusion During treatment, the specialized cardiac rehabilitation graded nursing team intervention significantly improves nursing quality, enhances cardiac function, boosts exercise tolerance and quality of life, and demonstrates positive overall rehabilitation effects, making it a reliable nursing strategy worthy of promotion and application.
