Effect of Different Nursing Interventions on Discharged Patients with Cardiac Valve Replacement Evaluated by Deep Learning Algorithm-Based MRI Information

Abstract

This study was aimed to explore the application of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image segmentation model based on U-Net in the diagnosis of a valvular heart disease. The effect of continuous nursing on the survival of discharged patients with cardiac valve replacement was analyzed in this study. In this study, the filling completion operation, cross entropy loss function, and guidance unit were introduced and optimized based on the U-Net network. The heart MRI image segmentation model ML-Net was established. We compared the Dice, Hausdorff distance (HD), and percentage of area difference (PAD) values between ML-Net and other algorithms. The MRI image features of 82 patients with valvular heart disease who underwent cardiac valve replacement were analyzed. According to different nursing methods, they were randomly divided into the control group (routine nursing) and the intervention group (continuous nursing), with 41 cases in each group. The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score and the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were compared between the two groups to assess the degree of anxiety of patients and the survival status at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years after discharge. The results showed that the Dice coefficient, HD, and PAD of the ML-Net algorithm were (0.896 ± 0.071), (5.66 ± 0.45) mm, and (15.34 ± 1.22) %, respectively. The Dice, HD, and PAD values of the ML-Net algorithm were all statistically different from those of the convolutional neural networks (CNN), fully convolutional networks (FCN), SegNet, and U-Net algorithms $\left(P<0.05\right)$ . Atrial, ventricular, and aortic abnormalities can be seen in MRI images of patients with valvular heart disease. The cardiac blood flow signal will also be abnormal. The GOS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than that of the control group $\left(P<0.01\right)$ . The SAS score was lower than that of the control group $\left(P<0.05\right)$ . The survival rates of patients with valvular heart disease at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years after discharge were significantly higher than those in the control group $\left(P<0.05\right)$ . The abovementioned results showed that an effective segmentation model for cardiac MRI images was established in this study. Continuous nursing played an important role in the postoperative recovery of discharged patients after cardiac valve replacement. This study provided a reference value for the diagnosis and prognosis of valvular heart disease.
