The Effect of Primary Nursing Care on Patient Satisfaction after Coronary Angioplasty
The results of the studies indicate that the method of care after coronary angioplasty and its continuation has a significant effect on the rapid recovery of the patient, reducing the length of hospital stay and the need for surgery. Among different types of nursing care, primary care is associated with maximum patient-centered care and continuity of care. This study aimed to determine the effect of applying primary nursing care on patient satisfaction after coronary angioplasty.
This randomized controlled trial was performed on 60 patients after coronary angioplasty in CCU ward of Razi Hospital of Birjand. Patients in the control group received routine care and in the experimental group, primary nursing care was administered based on the nursing process. Implementation care was done in the early morning shift by primary nurses and assistant nurses at night shift. At the time of discharge, the Patient Satisfaction Inventory (PSI) was completed by the patients. Data were analyzed by SPSS-16 software using independent t-test.
The results showed that there was no significant difference between mean score of satisfaction and its domains in both groups after intervention.
Although the patient satisfaction score and its dimensions increased in the experimental group, this increase was not significant compared to the control group. This result may be related to the routine nursing care delivery in the ward as well as the limited time of presence of patients undergoing coronary angioplasty in cardiac care unit.
