简要总结
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.
详细描述
Data collection:
Data collection was divided into four times: T0, T1, T2 and T3. T0 and T2 corresponded to preintervention data and T1 and T3 to postintervention data (T1 after the training and T3 one year later, after the whole intervention implementation).
At all four times, the I-CEpSE (competent health education practice, (in Spanish, 'Instrumento Competencia de Educación para la Salud del profesional de Enfermería'))instrument was collected as a means to measure self-reported nurses' knowledge, skills, and attitudes regarding competency-based health education. This questionnaire includes 58 items grouped into 3 domains: 1) Knowledge (items 1-23); 2) Skills (items 24-49); and 3) Attitudes (items 50-58). In turn, the skills domain is divided into two dimensions: personal/social skills (items 24-34) and educational skills (items 35-49). This is a validated instrument with good psychometric properties, internal consistency was high for each total scale (cognitive domain: Cronbach α = 0.95; psychomotor: Cronbach α = 0.95; attitudinal and affective: Cronbach α = 0.90) and for all factors (Cronbach α values ranged from 0.81-0.95).
