Abstract：Objective Using ear acupoint seed embedding combined with Five-Element music therapy to intervene in elderly patients with coronary heart disease,to explore the effects on their anxiety,depression and sleep quality.Methods 107 elderly patients with coronary heart disease admitted to the First People's Hospital of Lianyungang City from December 2021 to November 2023 were selected as the research subjects.According to the admission time,the patients were divided into a control group and an observation group.The control group received routine nursing care,while the observation group received ear acupoint seed embedding combined with Five-Element music therapy on the basis of routine nursing care.Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA),Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI),and a nursing satisfaction survey was conducted.Results After intervention,the HAMA and HAMD scores of the two groups of patients were both lower than those before intervention,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05),and the HAMA and HAMD scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).After intervention,the PSQI score of the observation group was lower than that before intervention,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).And the PSQI score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After intervention,the nursing satisfaction of the observation group(89.3%)was higher than that of the control group(62.7%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Ear acupoint seed embedding combined with Five-Element music therapy can alleviate anxiety and depression in elderly patients with coronary heart disease,improve sleep quality,and enhance nursing satisfaction.This method is simple and safe.
