About this study

Official title: Does Planned Visual Training Affect the Attitudes, Beliefs and Symptoms of Individuals with Heart Failure Towards Their Disease?

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of planned visual education based on the Health Belief Model on the attitudes, beliefs, and symptoms of heart failure patients towards their disease. Planned visual education based on the Health Belief Model has positive effects on the attitudes, beliefs, and symptoms of heart failure patients towards their disease.

Read the detailed description

This study, which evaluated the effects of planned visual education based on the Health Belief Model on the attitudes, beliefs, and symptoms of patients with heart failure towards their disease, was conducted with 110 heart failure patients. The study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study conducted on two groups as intervention (n = 55) and control group (n = 55). The study was conducted between September 2021 and March 2022 at Manisa Celal Bayar University (MCBU) Hafsa Sultan Hospital Cardiology Polyclinic. Simple randomization method was used in assigning the sample group to the experimental and control groups. Data were collected using "the Patient Identification Form", "the Health Belief Model Scale - Heart Failure" and "Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale - Heart Failure".

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Experimental GroupOther

    Also called Educational intervention

    Patients in the intervention group received HBM based training for a period of 6 months. During the training, one-on-one interviews were provided with each patient. Patients were shown a power point presentation, a brochure, and 3 training videos. Any questions patients had were answered one-on-one.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control GroupNo interventionNo Intervention: Control group No intervention was made by the researcher during the study. Only data was collected. At the end of the study, visual training based on the planned Health Belief Model was given and all patients who continued the study were given brochures and heart-shaped key chains designed by the researchers.
Experimental GroupExperimentalExperimental: intervention group The sample of this simple-randomized controlled experimental study consisted of heart failure patients who applied to Manisa Celal Bayar University (MCBU) Hafsa Sultan Hospital Cardiology Polyclinic between September 2021 and March 2022. Patients who were determined by drawing lots according to their protocol numbers using the simple random sampling method were assigned to the intervention group. Patients assigned to the intervention group were given planned training based on the Health Belief Model. The intervention group was followed up for six months. A total of three interviews were conducted with the intervention group (First interview, 3rd month interview and 6th month interview).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Data collection tool

    In order to monitor the effectiveness of the intervention in the study, a 6-month follow-up was conducted and data were collected from the intervention group 3 times (before the intervention, at 3 months and at 6 months) and from the control group twice (at the first interview and at 6 months) through data collection forms.

    HBM-based education program was applied to the intervention group as an intervention.

    Data collection tools were "Patient Information Form", "Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale - Heart Failure (MSAS-HF)" and "Health Belief Model Scale in Heart Failure (HBM-HF)".

    Patient Information Form: A total of 15 questions are included, including sociodemographic information (such as age, gender, marital status, education status, employment status, occupation and income status) and additional information regarding HF/HF treatment (perceived health status, compliance with diet, exercise, treatment compliance, regular doctor visits, etc.) of the participants.

    Measured: Pre-test

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Data collection tool

    In the study, 3-month data were collected from the intervention group using the same measurement tools.

    MSAS-HF: The scale is used to evaluate the symptoms experienced by patients with HF. It consists of three sub-dimensions in total (physical symptoms, psychological symptoms, and HF symptoms). For the symptoms encountered, it is expected to rate the frequency and severity of the symptom with a four-point Likert-type assessment, and the discomfort with a five-point Likert-type assessment. In the calculation, symptom load is first calculated for each symptom. The load of the unseen symptom is evaluated as zero. The Cronbach alpha values of the scale were reported as 0.53 for physical symptoms, 0.63 for psychological symptoms, and 0.55 for HF symptoms.

    Measured: 3 month
