Abstract

Background

Acute coronary syndrome characterizes the spectrum of myocardial ischemia states, which include non-ST elevated myocardial infarction (MI), and angina.

Objective

The aim of the present study is to determine the effectiveness of foot massage on selected physiological parameters among patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Methods

A quasi- experimental study was conducted in Karbala center for cardiac diseases and surgery from December 25th, 2023, to May 7th, 2024. A nonprobability purposive sampling consisted of 60 patients with acute coronary syndrome in the intervention group were instructed to performed four-step foot massage similarly 5 min for each foot. While patients in the control group just received routine medical treatment. The physiological parameters were checked in the two groups before, after 5 min, and 10 min after the foot massage. The study instrument consisted of two main parts: part one included patient's socio demographics and clinical data, and the second part was used to assess the physiological parameters. Statistical tests were conducted using the software SPSS, version 24, with a level of significance of 5 % (p value <0.05).

Results

that are a significant statistical differences between the mean of the selected physiological parameters readings for the study group except reading of pulse pressure, while there is no significant statistical difference between the mean of the readings of the selected physiological parameters for the control group except the reading of heart rate.

Conclusion

The study found that the foot massage is effective for improving the blood pressure, heart rate, mean arterial pressure.

足部按摩对急性冠状动脉综合征患者部分生理参数的影响

背景：急性冠状动脉综合征是一系列心肌缺血状态的特征，其中包括非ST段抬高的心肌梗死（MI）和心绞痛：本研究旨在确定足部按摩对急性冠状动脉综合征患者某些生理参数的影响：从 2023 年 12 月 25 日至 2024 年 5 月 7 日，在卡尔巴拉心脏病和外科中心进行了一项准实验研究。干预组的 60 名急性冠状动脉综合征患者在非概率有目的抽样中被指导进行四步足部按摩，每只脚类似地按摩 5 分钟。对照组患者只接受常规治疗。分别在足部按摩前、5 分钟后和 10 分钟后检查两组患者的生理指标。研究工具包括两个主要部分：第一部分包括患者的社会人口统计学和临床数据，第二部分用于评估生理参数。研究使用 SPSS 24 版软件进行统计测试，显著性水平为 5%（P 值<0.05）：研究发现，足底按摩能有效改善血压、心率和平均动脉压。

期刊介绍： Under the editorial leadership of noted cardiologist Dr. Hector O. Ventura, Current Problems in Cardiology provides focused, comprehensive coverage of important clinical topics in cardiology. Each monthly issues, addresses a selected clinical problem or condition, including pathophysiology, invasive and noninvasive diagnosis, drug therapy, surgical management, and rehabilitation; or explores the clinical applications of a diagnostic modality or a particular category of drugs. Critical commentary from the distinguished editorial board accompanies each monograph, providing readers with additional insights. An extensive bibliography in each issue saves hours of library research.
