Summary

This study tests a nurse-led program designed to help elderly patients (age 60+) adopt healthier behaviors after undergoing a heart stent procedure (PCI). The program provides information, motivation, and practical skills through in-person sessions, phone calls, and hands-on training. Researchers will compare the program to standard care to see if it improves health-promoting behaviors, self-confidence, and quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
nurse-led behavioral intervention
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could become a standard approach to help elderly heart patients adopt healthier lifestyles after stent surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with 78 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention relies on patient motivation and may not work for everyone.
