Study Description

This study will analyze clinical data from 200 Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients who underwent PET imaging and were admitted to Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital over a period of six months. The control group will receive routine nursing intervention, while the observation group will receive a refined specialized nursing intervention. We will meticulously compare various performance aspects in both groups to assess the impact of refined specialized nursing intervention on patients' image quality and patient satisfaction.
