Purpose: This bibliographic review presents all the available studies published from 2000-2019 in patients with acute myocardial infarction who have undergone Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). Conclusions: Improvement in quality of life of patients after PCI was observed at 6 and 12 months follow-up. Assessing patients’ quality of life after PCI is an important step towards a holistic approach. It is recommended health educational programs to be carried out and ongoing assessment of the quality of life of patients who have undergone PCI to be incorporated by the health care staff in their daily practice.

Design: Non-experimental design using a validated parental satisfaction questionnaire. The sample consisted of 550 parents (297 mothers, 253 fathers) whose infants were hospitalized in two Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) in Greece. The parents completed the questionnaire on the day of discharge. Results: Younger Greek women, with basic education level, who live in rural areas and whose infant's length of stay was short, expressed higher levels of satisfaction. Conclusion: The parents' sex and the duration of the infant's hospitalization are the most significant factors affecting parental satisfaction. Background factors should be considered when evaluating parental satisfaction.
