简要总结
Cardiac surgery via sternotomy is performed on more than one million people annually. Patient education may promote engagement in daily activities postoperatively. It is unknown if there is any difference in patients' feedback and outcomes when the education is delivered individually or in a group format.
The aim of this study is to collect participants' feedback and therapists' time spent on individual- and group-based Education in Daily Activities Engagement - Post-Sternotomy.
详细描述
This single-site non-randomised controlled study was conducted at Liverpool Hospital, NSW, Australia. All patients aged 18 or above who had received cardiac surgery via sternotomy at Liverpool Hospital cardiothoracic ward were consecutively allocated to the individual- or group-based postoperative education. Outcomes included a survey to obtain participants' feedback, the time spent by therapists delivering the education per participant, and participants' length of postoperative hospital stay.
