Abstract

Background: Patients's psychological well-being and general health outcomes are substantially affected by chronic coronary heart disease (CHD). Managing the psychological as well as the physical features of CHD depends on good nursing interventions. Methods: Emphasizing psychological support and laboratory monitoring, this review synthesizes present data on nursing treatments specifically targeted to patients with CHD. Several databases were searched methodically to find relevant research examining how nursing may support lifestyle changes, adherence to treatment plans, and mental health promotion. Results: The results suggest that patients' psychological resilience and quality of life are considerably improved by comprehensive nursing care, which encompasses patient education, emotional support, and personalized treatment plans. Important treatments noted include lifestyle counseling, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing. Furthermore, useful in controlling risk variables related to CHD, including blood pressure and cholesterol, is consistent laboratory testing. Furthermore, underlined as essential for maximizing patient outcomes was the cooperation of nurses, chemists, and healthcare teams.
Conclusion: The mental health and overall management of patients with CHD are significantly enhanced through the integration of nursing interventions and psychological support. Future studies should concentrate on creative ideas like telemedicine and digital health technology to improve nurse care and patient involvement in the treatment of chronic diseases.
