Abstract

This study was carried out as quasi-experimental to determine effect of the secondary prevention education program on patient's knowledge level who had myocardial infarction. This study was conducted at Zonguldak Social Insurance Regional Hospital in between July 2002 and December 2002, and at outpatient's home in the vicinity of Zonguldak in between July 2002 and April 2003. The sample of study was composed of 36 patients. The data were collected by using personal information, secondary prevention questionnaire and secondary prevention education program evaluation forms. The program was started at the hospital and then continued with education and discussion sessions by visiting the patients at their homes after discharge. At the end of this education program it has been found out that mean score of patient's knowledge increased significantly in each and overall sessions with respect to the beginning of the program.

Sekonder Koruma Eğitim Programının Miyokard İnfarktüsü Geçiren Hastaların Bilgi Düzeyine Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışma, sekonder koruma eğitim programının miyokard infarktüsü geçiren hastaların sekonder korunmaya yönelik bilgi düzeylerine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla yarı deneysel olarak yapılmıştır. Araştırma, Temmuz 2002- Aralık 2002 tarihleri arasında Zonguldak Sosyal Sigortalar Kurumu Bölge Hastanesi ve Temmuz 2002-Nisan 2003 tarihlerinde Zonguldak ili belediye sınırları içinde ikamet eden hastaların evlerinde yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini 36 hasta oluşturmuştur. Verilerin toplamasında kişisel bilgi, sekonder koruma soru ve eğitim programını değerlendirme formları kullanılmıştır. Eğitim programının uygulanması hastanede başlatılmış ve hasta taburcu olduktan sonra ev ziyaretleriyle eğitim ve tartışma oturumlarına devam edilmiştir. Eğitim programının sonunda öncesine göre hastaların aldıkları toplam bilgi puan ortalamalarının önemli oranda arttığı bulunmuştur. Program sonunda hastaların tamamı eğitim programını, verilen bilgi, kullanılan eğitim yöntemleri, kullanılan gereçler ve süre yönünden yeterli bulmuştur. Sonuçta, sekonder koruma eğitim programının miyokard infarktüsü geçiren hastaların sekonder korunmaya yönelik bilgi puan ortalamalarını önemli derecede arttırdığı saptanmıştır.
