Brief Summary

The goal of this RCT (randomized controlled trial) is to investigate the effect of education and counseling program that researches developed on patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) and low health literacy.

The main questions are; Is there a difference between the health literacy scores of intervention and control groups after education and counseling program? Is there a difference between the CIEDs knowledge scores of intervention and control groups after education and counseling program? Is there a difference between the daily life activity scores of intervention and control groups after education and counseling program?

Researches offer an education and counseling program about living with CIEDs to patients that having CIEDs for the first time. Participants answers questions in Health Literacy Survey European Questionnaire 16, cardiac implantable electronic devices knowledge scale (researches developed) and Duke Activity Index before education and counseling program, at first month, third month and sixth month after implantation.

Reseraches compare scores between intervention and control groups, also different times in same groups.
