Abstract: Objective To explore influence of out-hospital health education on life quality of senile patient with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after underwent stenting therapy of coronary artery.Methods A total of 100 cases of AMI patients undergoing stenting therapy of coronary artery were selected and randomly divided into the follow-up group and control group with 50 cases in each group. Patients of the follow-up group accepted out-hospital health education. While patients of the control group were only carried out conventional in-hospital health education. The quality of life of two groups was compared.Results At the end of study, the follow-up group had a better life quality than the control group ( P<0.01). The satisfactory degrees of nurse-patient relationship in the follow-up group were better than that of control group ( P<0.05).Conclusion Out-hospital health education can improve life quality of senile patient with AMI after underwent stenting therapy of coronary artery.
