Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a family-participated cardiac rehabilitation program and to test the effects of the program on self-efficacy, health behavior compliance, and family support for patients with percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: The design of this study was a nonequivalent control group non-synchronize design. There were 30 participants in the experimental group and 29 in the control group. The program consisted of six consecutive cardiac rehabilitation education and counselling sessions for 5 weeks. Data were analyzed using $x^2-test$, Fisher's exact test, and t-test using the SPSS program. Results: Self-efficacy, health behavior compliance, and family support scores were significantly increased in the experimental group compared to those in the control group. Conclusion: These results suggest that this program may improve self-efficacy, health behavior compliance, and family support in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention. Therefore, this program in which family members were included in supporting patients' adherence to health behaviors is recommended for use in clinical fields for the cardiac rehabilitation.
