Tittle: Innovations in cardiac nursing: Evidence-based strategies for optimizing patient outcomes in acute and critical care

Cardiac nursing continues to evolve as evidence-based practice reshapes acute and critical care delivery. At the International Conference on Cardiology and Cardiovascular Science (CVS 2026), Dr. Agussalim will present groundbreaking insights into innovative nursing strategies that significantly enhance patient outcomes in cardiac care settings.

🔬 Presentation Overview

This presentation focuses on the evaluation and implementation of evidence-based cardiac nursing interventions designed to improve clinical outcomes in acute and critical cardiac care units across Indonesian hospitals.

Key findings and highlights include:

· Improved Clinical Outcomes: Standardized nursing interventions were associated with reduced length of hospital stay, lower readmission rates, and improved patient adherence to treatment plans.

· Integrated Care Strategies: Early mobilization, optimized pharmacological management, and structured patient education emerged as key mechanisms driving improved outcomes.

· Targeted Application: Interventions were specifically designed for patients with acute and critical cardiac conditions in Type B hospitals.

· Real-World Effectiveness: Multicenter implementation demonstrated measurable improvements in patient recovery metrics, confirming in vivo success.

· Safety and Efficiency: The strategies were non-invasive, safe, and enhanced care efficiency without increasing clinical risk.

· Therapeutic Value: Evidence-based cardiac nursing interventions show strong potential to complement standard medical therapies.

· Future Directions: Broader adoption and further rigorous research are recommended to validate long-term effectiveness and scalability across diverse healthcare systems.
