OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to analyze application effects of specialized emergency nursing mode based on Global Registry Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) scoring system on Acute Coronary System (ACS) patients.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: 135 ACS cases in this hospital of the same period were selected and they were divided into control group (65 cases) and observation group (70 cases) according to random number method and their order of hospitalization. The standard specialized nursing mode was applied in the control group while specialized nursing mode based on GRACE scoring system was applied in observation group to compare treatment effects.

RESULTS: We found that average time of Door-to-Balloon, surgery time and length of stay in observation group were shortened and the occurrence rate of complications during and after surgery was significantly lowered. The remedy achievement ratio and satisfaction scores on nursing are increased and differences were of statistical significance (p<0.05).

CONCLUSIONS: The stratified nursing was used to ACS patients based on GRACE scoring system, which was able to significantly increase remedy achievement ratio and decrease complications and, therefore, nursing quality is improved.
