“…Previous studies have also reported that post-MI patients tend to have high learning need about medication information. [14][15][16] Patients consider information about medication important because they may understand that the treatment of myocardial infarction takes a long time and therefore feel it is important to understand as much as possible about their medication.…”

“…14,17 There are also some studies which have found only moderate-level learning needs related to anatomy and physiology. 16,18 These findings are not surprising because many times in order for the patient to understand the MI disease process, they need to understand the basic structure of the heart, how it works, and what happens to heart muscles during an MI incidence. These information needs would be most relevant to patients in the predischarge period to manage their care at home.…”

“…These findings support the view that post-MI patients perceive practical information relevant to survival as being of prime importance. 16,19 However, the fact that all categories are viewed as important to very important is arguably more important than their precise rank order. The results of this study indicated that there was a significant relationship between age groups and the total scores of the learning needs.…”

Background: Providing information for myocardial infarction patients is an important nursing function and is part of the role of health-care professionals delivering cardiac education. It is essential to acknowledge and incorporate the self-perceived needs of patients into the information they receive. Hospital stays are becoming shorter, reducing the opportunities for nurses to provide pre-discharge information to patients. This highlights the challenge of adequately assessing and meeting patients' Learning needs. Aims and objectives: To explore the Learning needs of patients who have received treatment for a myocardial infarction before their hospital discharge. Also, to examine differences in learning needs among patients according to their demographic characteristics. Materials and methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional, design was used to answer the research questions. A convenient sample of 55 patients interviewed in a coronary care unit at large northwestern hospital in Saudi Arabia. Cardiac Patients Learning Needs Inventory (CPLNI) was used to collect data. Results: Information about risk factors, anatomy and physiology, and medication were the most valued information by MI patients prior to discharge. There was a statistically significant difference between patients' total learning needs according to their socio-demographic characteristics. Younger patients needed more information than older ones. Highly educated patients needed more information than those in the uneducated group. Conclusion: This study suggests that MI patients have high learning needs within 24-48 h before hospital discharge. In addition, patients' learning needs vary according to their demographic characteristics. Relevance to clinical practice: Assessment of MI patients' information needs before their discharge from hospital helps in developing effective cardiac educational programme that will help these patients in their recovery at home.

“…Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality accounting for 31% of all deaths worldwide, and it is estimated to reach approximately 22.2 million deaths by 2030 [1,2]. More in detail, myocardial infarction morbidity and mortality rates are 1.5-15 times higher compared to general population [1]. However, surveillance of cardiac patients has increased due to improvements in pharmacological treatment and revascularization techniques.…”

Introduction: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a nonsurgical procedure used in the treatment of coronary heart disease.Purpose: The purpose of this study was to validate a scale created in order to assess the importance and fulfillment of information needs in patients after PCI. Methods: A 10-item scale was created by the researchers to explore the level of information needs and the level of fulfillment of these needs. The total scores have a possible range of 10 to 40 with higher scores indicating higher importance and fulfillment. The validation of the questionnaire included face and content validity, construct validity, internal consistency, repeatability, and discriminant validity.Results: Forty patients contributed to this validation. Mean and median scores for each question separately and also overall scores suggest that patients consider the need to be informed very important and that it was fulfilled to a very high degree (mean scores 39.5 and 39.3, respectively). All questions were found to be significantly correlated with the overall scores (rho > 0.3) meaning strong construct validity. Cronbach's α coefficients were high (>0.7) indicating great consistency. Both total scores had great repeatability, which suggests a high degree of reliability of the participants' responses (ICCs > 0.8). Regarding discriminant validity, a statistically significant association was observed only between marital status and the degree of fulfillment of the need to be informed (p = 0.036). More specifically, divorced or widowed patients had a lower degree of fulfillment than married patients (mean 38.6 vs. 39.6). Conclusion:It is a reliable instrument that will help clinicians who are at close contact with patients after PCI to gain a better understanding of their needs.

Coronary Angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention consider corner stone for diagnosis and treatment of CAD today. The previous studies that evaluated cardiac patients learning needs didn’t shed light on the unique needs of patients undergoing coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention. The current study aimed toassesslearning needs and its associated factors among elderly patients undergoing coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention at Zagazig University Hospitals. Descriptive design was utilized to conduct this study. A purposive sample of 155 elderly patients undergoing Angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention at cardiac catheterization units in Zagazig University Hospitals a structured interview questionnaire consisted of three parts (demographic characteristics, health profile and habits of the studied elderly) anda modified Cardiac Patient Learning Needs Scale. The present study revealed that 61.3% of studied elderly patients had high learning needs, 29.7% had moderate learning needs. High level learning needs were found in males, married, those with low educational level, those didn’t receive instructions preoperatively and those didn’t have a history of previous coronary intervention. The studied elderly patients' learning needs were high in all domains. There were statistically significant relations between total learning needs and gender, marital status,educational status, receiving instructions previously, and previous cardiac catheterization. Continuously assessing the learning needs of patients undergoing coronary angiography and PCI. Develop a comprehensive health education program that is focused on these needs to enhance their knowledge and improve the outcome of their disease.
