Objective: To evaluate the impact of patient-centered exercise rehabilitation combined with continuous health education on the quality of life and mental health of patients after coronary stent implantation to provide effective rehabilitation intervention strategies and scientific evidence for clinical practice. Methods: This retrospective cohort investigation involved patients who underwent coronary stent implantation at our hospital between January 2021 to December 2022. The control group (n = 81) received routine post-operative follow-up and health education, while the observation group (n = 68) additionally received personalized exercise rehabilitation and continuous health education. The short form-36 (SF-36) scale was used to assess quality of life, while the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) were used to evaluate mental health. The Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA) was used to assess self-care ability. Results: At 6 months post-operation, the observation group showed significantly higher scores than the control group across all dimensions of the SF-36 scale, SAS, SDS, and ESCA (p < 0.05). The observation group exhibited significantly improved quality of life, mental health, and enhanced self-care ability. Conclusion: Patient-centered exercise rehabilitation combined with continuous health education significantly positively impacts the quality of life and mental health of patients after coronary stent implantation. This comprehensive rehabilitation intervention strategy should be adopted in clinical practice to improve patient prognosis and quality of life.
