No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Background: Nurses, the usual leaders in the follow-up of chronic cardiac patients, need to improve their training so that they are in the best position to empower these patients. From this approach, health coaching is presented as an innovative and valid alternative. Despite this, no studies have been found that implement and evaluate this type of program in the hospital setting.

Purpose: to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of this programme for the development of nursing capacity in health coaching with CHF (Chronic Heart Failure) inpatients.

Method: An exploratory pre-post quasi-experimental pilot study. Nineteen nurses, the total population of nurses working in the cardiology ward, were recruited in September 2020. All the nurses received a multi-component intervention based on health coaching. The strategies of this program consisted in five 16-hour sessions using case studies to find out whether nurses were able to empower chronic cardiac patients and debriefing and a 4-hour booster session seven months later. The I-CEpSE instrument was used to assess outcomes. The primary outcome was the difference in the median of knowledge, skills and attitudes pre and post intervention (between T0-T1, T2-T3 and T0-T3). Changes within nurses were analyzed using U Mann-Whitney test for independent samples.
