Overview
Brief Summary
Stress, according to the WHO, is a condition of anxiety or mental strain brought on by a difficult circumstance. Humans naturally react to stress by addressing obstacles and threats. Everyone goes through periods of stress. Patients also have fear, anxiety, and stress related to their health status, disease condition recovery, and complications of the disease. Current estimates from epidemiologic studies from various parts of the country indicate a prevalence of Coronary heart disease to be between 7% and 13% in urban and 2% and 7% in rural populations. Epidemiologic studies have shown that there are, at present, over 30 million cases of Coronary heart disease in this country. One-sixth of patients with newly diagnosed CAD meet the criteria for significant stress and depression; at the one-year followup, only one-sixth of those who were depressed had received treatment. Cardiovascular diseases account for approximately one-third of all adult deaths over the age of 35. Stress and specific behaviours such as aggressiveness, hostility, an overly competitive sense of time urgency, and competitive striving for achievement are thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of Coronary heart disease. Stress was associated with worsening quality of life, physical and social functioning, and heart failure symptoms.
Method and materials:-The study followed an experimental research design, specifically a one-group pretest-post-test design, to evaluate the effectiveness of a teaching program on stress reduction strategies among coronary heart disease (CHD) patients. The research was conducted at A.V.B.R.H. Sawangi Meghe, where the study population consisted of patients diagnosed with coronary heart disease. The study was carried out over a period of two years, allowing sufficient time to assess the impact of the teaching program. The setting of the study was focused on the CHD patients at A.V.B.R.H. Sawangi Meghe, ensuring that the findings were relevant to this specific group.
Aim:- The study aimed to evaluate the impact of stress-reduction techniques on patients with coronary heart disease patients.
