Background:To assess the efficacy of a short one-on-one nursing intervention in people with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods:The experiment will be implemented from January 2021 to May 2021 at Wuhan No.1 Hospital. The experiment was granted through the Research Ethics Committee of Wuhan No.1 Hospital (W202012-8) and recorded in research registry (researchregistry6378). Patients are eligible for the study if they have a diagnosis of CHD, confirmed by their physician and lived independently. Exclusion criteria are: 1).. complicating serious comorbidity such as a major psychiatric illness or chronic renal failure; 2).. untreated malignancy or neurological disorder that impaired cognition; 3).. major and uncorrected hearing loss. Patients who agree to participate in the study attend interviews at the hospital. Primary outcome is the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) response index, which has 3 separate scales for knowledge, attitudes and beliefs. Secondary outcomes are anxiety and depression measured by multiple affect adjective checklist. It consists of 132 alphabetically ordered adjectives that are either negative (e.g., fearful) or positive (e.g., joyful).Results:Table 1 reflects the comparison of the biochemical and clinical variables and the lifestyle factors.Conclusion:A relatively short education may increase knowledge, attitudes and beliefs about ACS and response to ACS symptoms in individuals with CHD.Trial Registration Number:researchregistry6378
