Abstract
Aim. This study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effect of family-centered self-care program based on home visits on adherence to physical activity of patients with acute coronary syndrome
Background. Coronary artery disease is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases. The importance of physical activity as an important factor in controlling and preventing the recurrence of the disease in these patients. Adherence to physical activity in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has a significant effect on preventing re-hospitalization and reducing complications.
Method. In this semi-experimental study conducted in 2021-2002, 72 people with ACS were randomly divided into experimental and control groups (32 people in each group). For the control group, routine interventions, and for the experimental group, family-centered self-care was delivered. Data collection tools were demographic questionnaire and Beck's physical activity level questionnaire.
Findings. Before intervention, there was no statistically significant difference between groups in the mean score of adherence to physical activity. Immediately after the intervention, the mean score in the experimental and control group was 6.31±2.01 and 5.98±1.21, respectively, indicating a statistical significant difference between groups. One and half month after the intervention, the mean score in the experimental and control group was 9.14±1.44 and 78±0.9, respectively, showing a statistical significant difference between groups.
Conclusion. Family-centered self-care in patients with acute coronary syndrome is effective on adherence to physical activity of these patients. Therefore, it is recommended to use this educational method as one of the effective and non-pharmacological methods for people with ACS in medical centers and at home to improve the quality of life among these patients.
