Abstract
Background: Innovations in cardiac nursing, including evidence-based interventions and advanced patient management strategies, play a pivotal role in improving outcomes in acute and critical care. However, re search evaluating the combined impact of standardized nursing interventions across multiple hospitals in Indonesia remains limited.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of evidence-based cardiac nursing strategies in opti mizing patient outcomes among acute and critical care patients across eight Type B hospitals in Indonesia.
Method: A causal-comparative design was employed from January 2022 to January 2025, enrolling 140 pa tients diagnosed with acute or critical cardiac conditions. Standardized nursing interventions-including ear ly mobilization, tailored pharmacological management, and structured patient education-were implemented uniformly across all sites. Outcome measures comprised mortality, length of hospital stay, readmission rates, and adherence to prescribed treatment. Pearson's correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationships between nursing interventions and patient outcomes.
Results: Implementation of evidence-based cardiac nursing strategies demonstrated a significant positive im pact on patient outcomes. Early mobilization was associated with a 20% reduction in hospital stay, adherence to pharmacological management decreased readmission rates by 15%, and structured patient education im proved treatment compliance by 25%. These findings highlight the synergistic effect of combined standardized interventions on multiple clinically relevant outcomes.
Conclusion: Programmed ventricular stimulation remains a cornerstone in assessing and managing ven tricular arrhythmias, with technological advancements broadening its clinical utility. Despite challenges, its integration into predictive cardiology is promising. Multicenter research is essential to standardize protocols and validate innovations for optimized clinical use.
