The effect of a supportive educational intervention developed based on the Orem's self-care theory on the self-care ability of patients with myocardial infarction: a randomised controlled trial.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a supportive educational intervention developed based on the Orem 's self-care theory on the self-care ability of patients with myocardial infa rct ion . BACKGROUND Patients with cardiovascular disease suffer from the lack of knowledge about the disease and consequently are not able to fulfil their own self-care needs . DESIGN This was a r and omised controlled trial conducted in 2012 . METHODS We recruited a r and om sample of 66 patients with myocardial infa rct ion who had been recently discharged from coronary care unit . The study setting was two university hospitals located in Khorasan , Iran . Patients were r and omly allocated to either the experimental or the control groups . Patients in the experimental group received education , support , and counselling while patients in the control group received no intervention . We employed a demographic question naire and the Myocardial Infa rct ion Self-Care Ability Question naire for data collection and spss version 16.00 for data analysis . FINDINGS After the study , patients in the experimental group had higher levels of self-care knowledge , motivation and skills compared to the pre study readings and the control group . CONCLUSION The supportive educational intervention developed based on the Orem 's self-care theory can improve nonhospitalised patients ' self-care ability and positively affect public health outcomes . Consequently , using the developed programme for providing follow-up care to nonhospitalised patients is recommended . RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Having the ability to develop caring systems based on the nursing theories is a prerequisite to st and ard nursing practice . Identifying patients ' educational needs is a fundamental prerequisite to patient education . Our findings revealed that the supportive educational intervention developed based on the Orem 's self-care theory can help health care providers identify and fulfil patients ' self-care needs
