Özet:
Heart Failure is a health issue that presents with a combination of high cost and high prevalence. Self-care affects the HF patient's quality of life (QOL), morbidity and mortality, and 30-day hospital readmission. This quantitative correlational quality improvement project aimed to compare and validate the effects of implementing a multimedia interactive HF workbook education program. The project intervention supplements the project sites HF education of written evidence-based discharge instructions and a scripted post discharge follow-up phone call. The Atlanta Heart Failure Knowledge Test (AHFKT), a well-tested and validated tool, was utilized to evaluate pre-education and post-education of HF self-care knowledge. Thirty-two HF patients participated in the project. The paired sample t-test analysis noted a statistically significant improvement to post-education scores for both genders, male (N = 20, p = .002), female (N = 12, p = .003); ages 41--60 (N = 13, p = .002), 61--80 (N = 15, p = .003), and ethnicity, Caucasian (N = 10, p = .011), Asian (N = 9, p = .028), Pacific Islander (N = 12, p = .012). The project results proposed that a standardized, multimedia interactive HF education program improves self-care knowledge. Based on the project findings, the HF education program is being implemented throughout the site location and should be translated to other hospitals or settings, to achieve optimal clinical and cost-effective outcomes for this patient population.
