Summary

This study tests whether a structured nurse-led education program can improve knowledge, practical skills, and self-care behaviors in adults who have just received a permanent pacemaker. Participants receive three individual teaching sessions with illustrated booklets and hands-on demonstrations, or standard hospital care. The trial measures changes in knowledge, self-care behaviors, and practical skills at baseline, right after the program, and one month later.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Structured nurse-led education program with illustrated booklets and hands-on demonstration sessions
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could become a standard teaching method to help pacemaker patients manage their care more confidently and safely.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center study, so results may not apply broadly. The program's success depends on patient engagement and may not translate to all settings.
