Abstract: Objective To explore the correlation between the loss of healthy function and family care in hospitalized patients with coronary heart disease(CHD). Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted by using Sickness Impact Profile(SIP)and Family APGAR index in 182 hospitalized patients with CHD. Results The total score of healthy function loss was 25.285±8.577;the score of physical function loss was 18.925±10.203,and the social-psychology function loss was 28.286±9.596.Logistic regression showed that the risk factors of the loss of overall healthy function were age,heart function, disease severity,and family care with the odds ratios of 1.278,10.839,25.874,and 0.380,respectively.The patients with family dysfunction accounted for 47.2%of all patients.The loss of healthy function was negatively correlated with the family care(r=-0.355,P<0.05). Conclusion The healthy function of hospitalized patients with CHD was closely related to family care.It is important to improve family care for keeping the physiological-psychological-social function of the patients.
