Abstract：Objective To compare effects between routine rehabilitation exercise training combined with psychological therapy and simple routine rehabilitation exercise training for 3 months after PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) in CHD (coronary heart disease) patients.Methods To choose the cardiovascular internal medicine, 100 CHD patients accepted primary PCI from Liaoning electric power center hospital (40~80 years old) were randomly divided into control group (routine rehabilitation exercise) and observation group (routine rehabilitation exercise training combined with psychological therapy). Each group had 50 patients. Within two weeks after PCI, intervention would be given to all of the patients for three courses. Each course contains once intervention per week and lasts for four weeks. Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMD) scores, Hamilton depression scale (HAMA) score, 6 min walking test, left ventricular ejection fraction, metabolic equivalent and their quality of life were compared. Results: After 12 weeks’ intervention, HAMD scores and HAMA scores were decreased, especially in observation group (P<0.05).Results of 6 min walking distance test, left ventricular ejection fraction and metabolic equivalent in observation group were better than control group (P<0.05). Quality of life in observation group was more improved than control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Rehabilitation exercise training with psychological therapy is important CHD patients after PCI in health improvement.
