Objective:To observe the effect of rehabilitation therapy on cardiovascular events and quality of life in patients with coronary heart disease undergoing PCI. Methods: 60 patients with coronary heart disease undergoing PCI were randomly divided into treatment group (30 cases) and rehabilitation group (30 cases). The control groups were received drug therapy undergoing PCI specification, routine care and health education. The treatment groups were received comprehensive rehabilitation therapy based on the treatment of control groups. The incidence of cardiovascular events, the scores of 6 min walk test and quality of life were evaluated after six months treatment. Results:After 6 months of treatment, compared with the control group the incidence of recurrent angina, myocardial infarction, and in-stent restenosis of the treatment group were significantly lower than that of the control group. There was statistical y significant difference between the treatment group and the control group (P<0.05). The scores of 6min walk test, quality of life were significantly increased than that of the control group. There was statistical y significant difference between the treatment group and the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Rehabilitation therapy can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events and improve the quality of life in patients with coronary heart disease undergoing PCI.
