Abstract

Objective: By exploring the uncertainty and influencing factors of the disease in the relatives of patients with coronary heart disease, we can make intervention measures in advance, which will help patients to establish positive coping styles. The hospital can improve the quality of life of patients with coronary heart disease by improving their care ability. Method: According to Mishel disease uncertainty scale, 250 families of patients with coronary heart disease were investigated. Result: The family members of patients with coronary heart disease of different age, education level and family monthly income had different uncertainty induction scores, which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Education level, knowledge of coronary heart disease, self-efficacy of chronic disease, monthly income and residence are the influencing factors of health literacy of patients with coronary heart disease. The hospital must reduce the uncertainty of coronary heart disease, which will improve the rehabilitation effect of patients.
