Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Phase I cardiac rehabilitation on knowledge and satisfaction among patients admitted with ACS in a selected hospital at Ernakulam District in Kerala. The design was Quasi-experimental, one group pre-test posttest design. The sample included 32 patients admitted with ACS, selected by consecutive sampling. Pre-test was conducted on day one of admission using Socio-Demographic data and knowledge questionnaire. Phase I Cardiac Rehabilitation based on the validated intervention protocol was administered to patients over five days. Post-test was done on the fifth day using knowledge questionnaire and satisfaction scale. Paired ‘t’ test demonstrated the mean difference for knowledge as significant between the pre and post-test (p < .0001***). Regarding satisfaction, 59.60% of patients were satisfied and 18.3% were highly satisfied with the Cardiac Rehabilitation. There was no significant association between the knowledge scores and the socio-demographic variables. The results support the need for further investigation of cardiac rehabilitation as a method to positively influence the knowledge and satisfaction among patients admitted with ACS.
