Methodology: An quasi- experimental study (pre-post test) took place between 10th October 2013 to 30 Julia 2014 was carried out in the medical ward (Al-razi) at Ibn Al-Bitar specialized center for cardiac surgery. Total (100) patients in the study sample, the sample was randomly divided into two groups of (50) patients each. The study group was providing nursing interventions to them by the researcher. The group that was didn't provide nursing interventions to them by the researcher was considered the control group. Three instruments were used to conduct this study. They were a demographics form, clinical characteristics and knowledge assessment tool. Knowledge assessment tool consisted of (22) question. It consists of three parts: understanding coronary heart disease (CAD), coronary risk factors, percutaneous coronary interventions procedure. Reliability of the questionnaires was determine by calculating Cronbachs' Coefficient alpha =0.83. Descriptive data analysis was done through (frequency, percentage mean, standard deviation and relative sufficiency), inferential data analysis was done by (Fisher Exact Probability Test, Chi-Square test and Wilcoxon signed rank test). Results: The results of the present study shows that there are highly significant differences between the study group and control group regarding main domains of patients' knowledge (understanding coronary heart disease (CAD), coronary risk factors, percutaneous coronary interventions procedure) and overall main domains at post test at P = 0.00 value. Conclusion: the health educational program is effective to improve the patient's knowledge concerning PCI in the study group. Recommendations: Nurses should be playing a greater role to provide the nursing interventions to the patients undergoing PCI procedure. | ||
