Abstract：Objective To investigate the clinical application effect of psychocardial nursing service in elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) complicated by anxiety and depression.Methods The patients (n=104) were continuously chosen from the Fourth Department of Geriatrics of Chinese PLA Army General Hospital from May 2014 to July 2016, and then divided randomly into control group (n=52) received routine nursing service and observation group (n=52) received routine and psychocardial nursing service. The psychological states were reviewed by using self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depressive scale (SDS) in 2 groups before and after nursing intervention. The heart function was detected by using echocardiogram, and medical compliance and degree of satisfaction to nursing service were reviewed in 2 groups.Results The comparisons in indexes of echocardiogram, SAS scores and SDS scores had no statistical significance between 2 groups before the nursing service (P>0.05). After corresponding nursing service, the heart function was improved in 2 groups. The indexes of echocardiogram were better, and SAS scores and SDS scores were lower in observation group compared with control group (all P<0.05). The medical compliance was higher in observation group than that in control group (96.15％vs. 76.92％), and degree of satisfaction to nursing service was higher in observation group than that in control group (98.08％vs. 82.69％, all P<0.05).Conclusion The psychocardial nursing service can effectively ameliorate psychological negative emotions, promote medical compliance, and improve clinical efficacy, nursing efficacy and degree of satisfaction to nursing service. It is well worth clinical application.
