ABSTRACT

At present, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global public health emergency, bringing a great threat to human health. This study aims to evaluate and analyze the factors that influence the quality of life (QOL) of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) during COVID-19 to provide a realistic basis for improving their QOL. A total of 70 patients with CHD were selected through convenience sampling from three heart rehabilitation centers. The cross-sectional survey of the study cases were carried out using an online survey platform. All of the participants completed a general situation questionnaire, and QOL was assessed through the 36-item Short Form Health Survey. Results showed that the overall QOL of patients with CHD during COVID-19 was poor, having an average score of 65.99 ± 10.97. Moreover, multivariate linear regression analysis showed that worry about COVID-19 (P < 0.05) and different exercise intervention types (P < 0.05) were the main factors affecting the QOL of patients. On the one hand, positive measures should be taken to provide psychological counseling to ease their sense of concern. On the other hand, engaging in exercise is more important for these patients to improve physical function, particularly Tai Chi exercises.

摘要

目前，2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）已成为全球突发公共卫生事件，给人类健康带来巨大威胁。本研究旨在评估和分析COVID-19期间影响冠心病（CHD）患者生活质量（QOL）的因素，为改善其生活质量提供现实依据。通过便利抽样从三个心脏康复中心选择了 70 名 CHD 患者。研究案例的横断面调查是使用在线调查平台进行的。所有参与者都完成了一份一般情况问卷，并通过 36 项简表健康调查评估了生活质量。结果显示，冠心病患者在 COVID-19 期间的整体生活质量较差，平均得分为 65.99 ± 10.97。而且，多元线性回归分析显示，对COVID-19的担忧（P < 0.05）和不同的运动干预类型（P < 0.05）是影响患者生活质量的主要因素。一方面，应采取积极措施，提供心理疏导，缓解他们的担忧情绪。另一方面，对于这些患者来说，运动对于改善身体机能更为重要，尤其是太极拳。
