Abstract：Objective:To construct an upper limb exercise program after permanent pacemaker implantation,providing reference for early exercise rehabilitation.Methods:Literature on upper limb exercise intervention after permanent pacemaker implantation were searched.Through literature research and discussions within our research group,an initial pool of project items was formed.And expert inquiry questionnaire was compiled.Using the Delphi method,15 experts were subjected to 2 rounds of inquiry to screen for project items.Results:A total of 22 articles were included.The effective recovery rates of both rounds of inquiry was 100%.And the expert authority coefficient was 0.93.The Kendall harmony coefficients for item importance and feasibility were 0.275-0.467 and 0.211-0.438,respectively(P<0.05).The upper limb exercise program after permanent pacemaker implantation constructed in this study included 4 primary items,15 secondary items,and 44 tertiary items.Conclusions:The upper limb exercise program for permanent pacemaker implantation constructed in this study has strong clinical practicality and could provide reference for clinical practice.
