Description
After a heart diagnosis, a specialist nurse who teaches and counsels may do what a rushed cardiology visit cannot. Ilias Molos and co-authors evaluate such a program in a 2024 Athens study of two hundred seventy-five patients. Eight topics ran from anxiety and activity to diet, smoking, and family involvement.
By the second measurement, anxiety, cholesterol, weight, and smoking had all eased, and adherence to the care plan climbed. Patients who stayed anxious stuck to their plans least, and a family history of heart disease also predicted weaker adherence. The authors make the case for nurse-led follow-up as standard aftercare.
