[abstract]Objective To explore the effect of structured transport preparation on anxiety of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) leaving intensive care unit. Methods 101 patients with CHD diagnosed and treated in our hospital from January, 2022 to March, 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into routine intervention group (52 cases) and observation group (49 cases) according to different intervention mode. The self-rating anxiety scale (PSQI), Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were compared before and after the intervention. Comparing the self-rating scales of anxiety before and after the intervention (SAS) score, Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA) scoring, visual analogue scoring method (VAS) score, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) grade, And the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Score of each dimension.Results Compared with before intervention, the scores of SAS and HAMA in the two groups decreased after intervention (P<0.05), and the scores of SAS and HAMA in the observation group were lower than those in the routine group (P<0.05). Compared with before intervention, the scores of VAS and PSQI in both groups decreased after intervention (P<0.05), and the scores of VAS and PSQI in the observation group were lower than those in the routine group (P<0.05). Compared with before intervention, the scores of SGRQ in both groups decreased after intervention (P<0.05), and the scores of SGRQ in the observation group were lower than those in the routine group (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of structured transport preparation in CHD patients can relieve their anxiety and pain when they leave the CHD intensive care unit, and improve their sleep quality and quality of life.
