Description
Summary:Introduction: Hypertension is one of the most common, chronic and recurrent diseases that is considered to be an important treatment. Hence, teaching to a patient with hypertension it’s too important. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of planned training on the self-efficacy of patients with hypertension. Methods: This clinical trial was performed on 140 hypertension patients referred to the cardiology clinic of Farshchian Hospital in Hamadan. Patients were selected by random sampling and randomly assigned to two groups of intervention and control. Patients’ education was held in the form of 3 training sessions. Which were held every week. After 4 weeks and 8 weeks after the end of the intervention, both groups took a post-test. Data was analyzed by SPSS16. Results: Both groups were homogeneous for demographic variables and statistically there was no significant difference between the two groups. Also, there was no significant difference between the self-efficacy scores of both groups before entering the study (P> 0.05). However, there was a significant difference between the self-efficacy score of the intervention and control group before the intervention (4 weeks and 8 weeks after intervention) (P <0.001). Conclusion: According to the findings of this study, it seems that as a low cost and effective method education can increase hypertensive patients’ self-efficacy.
