Abstract
Background: Cardiovascular illnesses are a leading cause of mortality globally, with coronary heart disease (CHD) being a common cardiovascular disorder that poses a significant health burden on communities. CHD is characterized by inadequate blood supply to the heart due to plaque buildup in the coronary arteries, resulting in chest discomfort, heart attacks, and potentially fatal outcomes. Aim of Work: The aim of the research is to recognize the risk factors contributing to CHD, explore prevention methods, evaluate suitable treatment options, and identify effective rehabilitation techniques, particularly focusing on the role of nursing care in managing patients with this condition. Methods: A comprehensive electronic search was conducted across six databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Embase) up to 2018. The present research involved a comprehensive analysis of existing literature to examine effective nursing interventions and care strategies for patients with coronary heart disease, including monitoring, education, and emotional support. Results: Nurses play a crucial role in managing CHD by monitoring vital signs, administering medications, conducting diagnostic tests, and ensuring patients receive timely and appropriate therapies.
