Abstract

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of comfort nursing in elderly patients with chronic heart failure. Methods: 80 elderly patients with chronic heart failure admitted to our hospital were divided into the control group and the observation group, with 40 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing and the observation group received comfort nursing. Clinical evaluation was conducted on the patients, and the asthma relief time, heart rhythm recovery time and hospital stay were compared during the nursing intervention, and the patients' mental ability was evaluated by SAS and SDS data of the patients before and after the nursing, and the overall nursing efficiency of the two groups was compared. Results: The time of asthma relief, heart rhythm recovery and hospital stay in the observation group were less than those in the control group. The SAS and SDS data of the observation group were lower than those of the control group. The effective rate of nursing in the observation group was higher than that in the control group on the whole, and there was a significant difference in the comparative analysis between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: Elderly chronic heart failure needs comfort nursing intervention to improve the comfort of patients, which is conducive to the improvement of clinical treatment effect and psychological resistance of patients, and is an effective nursing mode to control elderly chronic heart failure.
