Kinesiophobia in patients with coronary heart disease: a Rodgers' evolutionary concept analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Research on kinesiophobia in coronary heart disease is increasing, but existing studies primarily adopt concepts from the chronic pain domain, neglecting the specific characteristics of coronary heart disease patients. This gap limits effective identification and management.

Objective

This study aims to clarify the concept of kinesiophobia in coronary heart disease using Rodgers' evolutionary concept analysis.

Methodology

Rodgers' evolutionary concept analysis method was applied to review the literature. A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus, ProQuest, OVID, CNKI, Wanfang Data, CBM, and VIP Database (up to June 30, 2024).
