Brief Summary

This study will be conducted to determine the effect of the training given to indivuduals with heart failure by teach back method on their symptom control, adherence to treatment and self care behaviours.

Detailed Description

İntroduction: At least 40 million individuals worldwide live with heart failure. Although it is progressive, heart failure symptoms can be controlled through pharmacological treatment and self-care practices. The aim of heart failure treatment is to improve the quality of life of patients, prolong their lifespan, and prevent the progression of symptoms of the disease and re-admission to the hospital. Heart failure guidelines state that patient education and post-discharge follow-up are necessary for successful management of symptoms.

Purpose:This study will be conducted to determine the effect of the training given to indivuduals with heart failure by teach back method on their symptom control, adherence to treatment and self care behaviours.

Method:This study will be conducted using a randomized controlled research design. The research sample will consist of 58 with heart failure in the cardiology department of a training and research hospital. Research data will be collected using introductory information form, the Morsky Treatment Compliance Scale, European Heart Failure Self-Care Behavior Scale-12, Heart Failure Symptom Status Scale. Training and consultancy services based on the teach-back method will be provided to individuals in the training group using the "Heart Failure Training Guide" in the form of 3 follow-ups in the cardiology clinic and telephone counseling. Telephone interviews were conducted by the researcher in the first week after discharge, it will be held in the first month and 3rd month. In addition, patients will receive counseling by calling the researcher if necessary. After the patients are discharged, they will be called 1 week later, at the end of the 1st month and at the end of the 3rd month, and training will be repeated and counseling will be provided in line with the issues needed. Research posttest data will be collected 3 months after discharge.
