Despite robust evidence linking these psychosocial stressors to increased mortality and morbidity, they remain under-addressed in routine nursing care pathways. This systematic review synthesized the available evidence on the nature and efficacy of nursing-led interventions designed to mitigate these risks in cardiovascular patients.</span></span></span></h1> <h1 style="line-height:1.2; text-align:justify; margin-top:19px; margin-bottom:8px"><span style="font-size:12pt; font-variant:normal; white-space:pre-wrap"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-weight:400">Methods: Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, a systematic search was conducted across PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, and PsycINFO for studies published between January 2000 and December 2024. Methodological quality was rigorously assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias (RoB 2.0) and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.</span></span></span></h1> <p style="line-height:1.2; margin-top:1px; margin-bottom:8px"><span style="font-size:12pt; font-variant:normal; white-space:pre-wrap"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif">Results: Fifty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria. The review identified three primary modalities of nursing-led support: structured cognitive-behavioral approaches, tele-health monitoring, and community-based social prescribing. The majority of included trials reported significant clinical improvements in patient-reported loneliness scores and social integration. Findings indicate that nursing-led interventions are most effective when integrated into long-term cardiac rehabilitation programs rather than limited to acute post-discharge phases.</span></span></p> <h1 style="line-height:1.2; text-align:justify; margin-top:19px; margin-bottom:8px"><span style="font-size:12pt; font-variant:normal; white-space:pre-wrap"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-weight:400">Conclusion: Nursing professionals play a pivotal role in identifying and managing the psychosocial determinants of cardiac health. Routine screening for loneliness should be embedded into standard cardiovascular nursing protocols. Future research should prioritize large-scale longitudinal studies to determine the sustained impact of these nursing-led models on hard clinical endpoints, such as readmission rates and mortality.</span></span></span></h1> ,Loneliness,Social isolation,Cardiovascular disease,Nursing interventions,Patient. 1001 1009 http://jccs.yums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-449-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Maryam Asgari asgarii.msn@gmail.com Yes
