Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Retrospectively analyze and summarize the effect of Taichi-oriented exercise rehabilitation on cardiac function of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after interventional therapy. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed on 59 patients with the first episode of AMI after interventional surgery who were admitted to the Department of Cardiology in the Shanghai Changzheng Hospital from July 2015 to June 2016. According to the different methods of exercise intervention, the patients were divided into the Taichi exercise group (n=30) and the routine exercise group (n=29). Patients in the routine exercise group received routine exercise nursing, and those in the Taichi exercise group were given the exercise program with Taichi as the core category. Baseline data were collected from all patients, including the cardiac function, quality of life and sense of coherence (SOC) before the intervention, as well as 3 months and 6 months after the intervention. The two groups of patients were compared in the aspects of the baseline data, the cardiac function, quality of life and SOC before and after the intervention. RESULTS: There was no significant difference between clinical data of the two groups (P>0.05), indicating the comparability between the groups. According to the inter-group comparison of the Taichi exercise group and the routine exercise group, there were statistically significant differences in other indexes between groups (all P<0.05), except in stem cell mobilization level 3 months after the intervention (P=0.1415), emotional role function in the quality of life (P>0.05), and comprehensibility in sense of coherence (SOC) (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Taichi-centered exercise rehabilitation program can obviously improve the heart function, the quality of life, and the effect of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in patients with AMI after interventional therapy.
