Abstract：Objective To investigate the influence of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) nursing mode on cardiac and nursing adverse events in elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods The elderly patients with CHD (n=78) were chosen from the Department of Fourth Cadre Ward of Chinese PLA Army General Hospital, and randomly divided into intervention group (n=40) and control group (n=38). The control group was given routine nursing and intervention group was additionally given the intervention of CGA nursing mode. The incidence of cardiac adverse events (refractory angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, cardiogenic shock, heart failure and sudden death) and nursing events (pressure sore, falling out of bed, fall, empyrosis, aspiration, suffocation, extubation and miss-medication) were observed in 2 groups after 3 m.Results The differences in age, sex, disease course, accompanied basic diseases and medication history had no statistical significance between 2 groups (P>0.05). After intervention for 3 m, the incidence of cardiac adverse events was significantly lower in intervention group than that in control group (7.5%vs. 50.0%,P<0.05), and incidence of nursing adverse events was significantly lower in intervention group than that in control group (5.00%vs. 44.74%, P<0.05).Conclusion CGA nursing mode can reduce the incidence of cardiac and nursing adverse events and improve quality of life in elderly patients with CHD.
