Description

Background: The rising prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD) has
highlighted the need for supportive-educative efforts, particularly in nursing.
These initiatives are crucial for improving self-care management in CHD
patients, enhancing their quality of life. Clinical nurses are key in this role,
leveraging their direct patient interaction and expertise to provide tailored
education and support.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the supportive-educative needs of
CHD patients from the perspective of clinical nurses.
Methods: A descriptive qualitative study was conducted for this research.
Participants included 30 clinical nurses responsible for caring for CHD patients
in both inpatient wards and outpatient polyclinics. Interview guidelines were
utilized to collect data through in-depth interviews, triangulation, and the
obtained interview data were analyzed using the thematic analysis approach.
Results: We identified four themes related to the supportive-educative
needs of CHD patients: 1) engaging and informative media; 2) culturally
sensitive approaches; 3) nurses’ attitudes; and 4) family empowerment.
Conclusion: Supportive education, tailored to the needs of CHD patients,
is vital for effective disease management. This study’s findings highlight the
importance of incorporating four key elements into supportive education:
engaging and informative media to enhance learning, culturally sensitive
approaches to address diverse patient needs, the positive impact of nurses’
empathetic attitudes, and the empowerment of families in the care process.
Integrating these aspects can significantly aid CHD patients in developing
self-care skills that positively influence their quality of life.
