Abstract
Aim. The present review study was conducted with the aim of exploring what nurses should know about interactions of diet containing vitamin K with warfarin.
Background. Warfarin is one of the most widely used oral anticoagulants. Dietary interactions, mainly due to vitamin K, are a common concern when consuming warfarin. In the meantime, the nurse, as the first person in the care chain and the main person in charge of patient education, can play an important role in reducing these interactions, which is a challenge for patients.
Method. The present review study was conducted through searching out library as well as databases such as PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, Up-to-date, OVID, CINAHL, Magiran and SID using Persian keywords of warfarin, dietary interactions, vitamin k diet, patient and nurse education and their English equivalents in the period 1999 to 2021. Out of a total of 30 articles found, 8 articles were reviewed after screening the articles.
Finding. The findings of this study showed that the amount of vitamin K intake in the diet should be kept constant. This is 90 to 120 micrograms per day. Patients should be properly and continuously educated about vitamin K in various foods and supplements. In the meantime, the role of the nurse as one of the pillars of patient education is very important and fundamental.
Conclusion. Due to the role of the nurse in educating these patients, it is recommended that education about dietary interactions be used using authoritative sources. It is possible with methods such as preparing a clinical guide, making a video and designing an application, and including tables of vitamin K levels in foods.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim. This study aimed to investigate the effect of individual and group self-care training on self-care behaviors and readmission in patients with heart failure.
Background. Teaching patients with heart failure plays an important role in achieving favorable treatment outcome, management of disease complications and reduction in readmission.
Method. This semi-experimental study was conducted with a pre-test post-test design with a control group and follow-up on 75 patients with heart failure. In individual education group, educational intervention was done individually and in another experimental group, it was done in groups of 3-5 people in two sessions. In control group, routine training was delivered. Self-care behaviors were evaluated using the European Heart Failure Self-care Behavior Scale (EHFScBs) at the beginning, and 30 and 90 days after discharge. The frequency of readmission was evaluated 30, 60 and 90 days after discharge. Data analysis was done in SPSS version 21 using Chi-square and Kruskal-Wallis statistical tests.
Findings. Self-care behaviors in 30 and 90 days after the intervention showed a statistically significant difference between experimental and control groups (p=0.002 and p=0.027, respectively). Regarding the frequency of readmission, at the end of 30, 60 and 90 days after discharge, there was no statistically significant difference between groups.
Conclusion. Providing educational intervention (in individual and group forms) is recommended to improve self-care behaviors in patients with heart failure. The effect of these educational interventions on the frequency of readmission was not significant; therefore, it is suggested to conduct future studies with more samples and in a longer period of time.
