Summary

This study was planned as a randomized, controlled, experimental study to evaluate the effects of transtheoretic model-based education on self-care, drug compliance and quality of life in patients with heart failure. The number of samples required for the study was determined by the power analysis made in the GPower 3.1 package program. Assuming that there may be losses in follow-up and considering that non-parametric tests can be performed, the research group will consist of a total of 72 people, 36 in each group, with an increase of 20%. Patients with heart failure who do not have communication barriers to affect cognitive functions, can use tele-health applications (Smartphone and application), volunteers aged 18 and over and agree to participate in the study will be included in the intervention and control groups. The data of the study, "Socio-demographic Characteristic Data Form", "Question Form Regarding the Disease", "European Heart Failure Self-Care Behaviors Scale-12", "Beliefs About Medication Adherence Scale," in which socio-demographic characteristics and information about the disease were questioned. (IUHIO)'' and ''Minnesota Life with Heart Failure Questionnaire''.

BEHAVIORAL

Intervention transtheoretical model group

The Transtheoretical Model is a conscious behavior modification model that focuses on individual decision making and planning processes. It is the only model that examines behavior change as a dynamic process rather than an outcome, and considers behavioral strategies that include the individual's cognitive and behavioral processes in this process. In the model, it is stated that behavior change is a process and develops gradually. It is reported that the change in the behavior of individuals consists of six stages: 1) not thinking, 2) thinking, 3) preparation, 4) taking action, 5) maintaining and 6) terminating. This model consists of four main constructs called change stages (time-related dimension), change processes/behavior modification methods (independent variable dimension), self-efficacy (levels of change) and decision-making balance (perceptions of harm and benefit of change).
