Summary

This study follows over 3,400 adults who have had a heart stent procedure to understand how continuity of care, health literacy, and medication adherence influence their long-term health. Researchers will track hospital readmissions, medication use, and patient-reported outcomes like anxiety and depression. The goal is to identify what helps patients manage their condition best after leaving the hospital.
