Cardiac Rehabilitation in Coronary Artery Diseases
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Cardiac rehabilitation is approaches that focus on accelerating the recovery process of patients after a cardiac event, improving their physical, psychological and social conditions, and controlling risk factors. Cardiac rehabilitation is known to be an effective and cost-effective approach in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases, most of which are caused by preventable risks. Ischemic heart diseases, one of the cardiovascular diseases, are responsible for 16% of total deaths in the world and have increased significantly since 2000, causing 8.9 million deaths in 2019.
When coronary artery diseases cannot be prevented, the basic approach should be to ensure the individual's compliance with treatment and healthy lifestyle behaviors, and to increase the quality of life and life span.
For this reason, the aim of the study is to examine the effects of technology-based education structured according to the health promotion model in cardiac rehabilitation on healthy lifestyle behaviors, health fatalism and risk knowledge level.
Question 1. Does technology-based education structured according to the health promotion model affect the healthy lifestyle behaviors score? Question 2. Does technology-based education structured according to the health promotion model affect the health fatalism score? Question 3. Does technology-based education structured according to the health promotion model affect the cardiovascular disease risk factors knowledge level score?

Experimental: Experimental group

Other: Technology-based training structured according to the Health Promotion Model
Experimental group: A video recording was created with a total of 6 zoom applications to be shared with the patients. The content of the video recordings consists of a presentation accompanied by a slide show with open-ended questions prepared by considering the basic concepts of the trainings and the Health Promotion Model. Video recordings, each of which lasted approximately 15-25 minutes, were shared with patients once a week for a total of 6 weeks via WhatsApp. After each video, patients were given three days to watch the video recordings and create their own responses. After this three-day period, the researcher called the patients with whom he shared the content and gave counseling for 10-15 minutes and received feedback. Follow-up was done in the second 6-week period. During the monitoring process, two reminder interviews were made over the phone, with an interval of 2 weeks, for reminder and counseling, and the post-test data were collected at the end of the monitoring period.
