Abstract

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) encompasses a range of disorders impacting the heart and blood vessels, with coronary artery disease (CAD) standing as the most prevalent type. CAD results from the process of atherosclerosis and is a long-term condition that can culminate in severe outcomes such as heart attacks and even fatality. Patients undergoing PCI experience emotional and psychological problems. Among those, anxiety was prevalent among 42% of patients with cardiac diseases, 50% of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and 63% of patients with heart failure (HF). A randomized controlled trial was conducted to assess the efficacy of blended care on anxiety and discomfort among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention at a selected hospital coronary care unit in Bangalore. The data has been collected using a purposeful random sampling technique. The result proves that blended care will reduce anxiety and discomfort among percutaneous coronary intervention patients.
