简要总结
Determine the benefits of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) patients participating in a structured, 8-week educational telephone intervention delivered by expert cardiovascular nurses post-ICD. To determine if individuals participating in a post-hospital telephone nursing intervention would demonstrate (1) increased physical functioning, (2) increased psychological adjustment, (3) improved self-efficacy in managing the challenges of ICD recovery, and (4) lower levels of health care utilization over usual care at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months post-ICD implantation.
详细描述
The goal of the study was to determine if a short-term social cognitive theory intervention would improve physical functioning and enhance psychological adjustment after receiving a first time ICD. The central aim of this study was to determine if individuals participating in a telephone nursing intervention compared to usual care demonstrated (1) improved physical functioning, (2) improved psychological adjustment, 3) improved knowledge related to sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and the ICD, and (4) lower levels of health care use over a 3-month period post-ICD.

结局指标
主要结局
SF-12 Short Form Health Survey (SF-12)
时间窗: change in general health (SF-12) score from baseline to 12 months
scores from 0 to 100 with higher scores representing better self-reported health
State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)
时间窗: change in anxiety (STAI) score from baseline to 12 months
Scores range from 20 to 80. Higher scores indicating greater anxiety.
Patient Concerns Assessment (PCA)
时间窗: Change in patient concerns from baseline to 12 months
scores from 0 to 58 in which lower scores reflect fewer symptoms
次要结局
