Summary

Aim: The aims of this study are 1) to determine the demand of post-acute care among patients with cardiovascular disease in China; 2) to identify the details of demands especially which have value for the post-acute care for patients with cardiovascular disease.

Design: A single center prospective cohort study. Methods: Patients will be enrolled from the department of cardiology in a tertiary teaching hospital. The data on the demands of post-acute care will be collected throughout the hospitalization and discharge. Patients with cardiovascular disease will be followed up for 3 months. The study was approved by the ethics committee in August 2020.

Discussion: Post-acute care is very important for the short- and long-term outcomes of the patients with cardiovascular disease. This study will provide an effective tool for the investigation of the detailed demands for post-acute care in cardiovascular disease and provide a better understanding of the demands for the patients with cardiovascular disease.

Impact: In clinical practice, understanding of the demands for post-acute care of the patients with cardiovascular disease can help nurses implement effective strategies at the early stages to patients to improve the short- and long-term outcomes of the patients. The follow-up results will help us better understand the impact of a post-acute care system on patients' outcomes.
