Detailed Description

Aim: The aim of this research was to investigate the impact of nursing interventions that were Watson's Human Care Model- based nursing interventions on the psychosocial adjustment of patients who have undergone implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation.

Design: The present study employs a randomized controlled design with a pretest-posttest control group, conducted over a period spanning from March 2020 to July 2022.

Methods: The research was carried out utilizing an implantable cardioverter on individuals who met the inclusion criteria and provided consent to participate in the study at an adult cardiology outpatient unit located within a university hospital. A study was carried out on a sample of 64 patients who had been implanted with a defibrillator. The intervention group participants underwent six interviews at two-week intervals, during which a hybrid and structured nursing intervention was administered. The data were gathered utilizing an introductory information form and the Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness-Self-Report Scale (PAIS-SR). The statistical methods employed in the data analysis included the chi-square test, t test for independent groups, Mann-Whitney U test, t test for dependent groups, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Intervention group

Intervention group participants underwent six interviews at two-week intervals, during which a hybrid and structured nursing intervention was administered.

Behavioral: Human Care Model Based Nursing Interventions
The interviews scheduled for the intervention group were organized in accordance with the sub-dimensions of the PAIS-SR scale, and the content of each interview was informed by the 10 improvement processes of HCT.

No Intervention: Control group

Control group participants were not subjected to a structured nursing intervention.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Increasing the patient's psychosocial adjustment with ICD [10 week later]

    Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale -Self Report (PAIS-SR) scale was used. This scale is a multidimensional scale that evaluates psychosocial adjustment to the disease. There are 7 different subscales of the scale that enable the determination of psychosocial adjustment, and the scale consists of a total of 46 items. These subscales are as follows; Orientation to Healthcare, Vocational Environment, Domestic Environment, Sexual Relationships, Extended family Relationships, Social Environment and Psychological distress. The minimum and maximum scores obtained from the scale are between 0-138. The higher the score, the worse the fit. Scores below 35 from the scale indicate good psychosocial adjustment, scores between 35-51 indicate moderately good psychosocial adjustment, and scores above 51 indicate poor adjustment.
