A study was undertaken to (1) develop an individualized audiovisual patient education program about digoxin and congestive heart failure, and (2) ascertain whether a patient who received the education program from a pharmacist would demonstrate a significantly greater gain in knowledge about digoxin and congestive heart failure than a traditionally-educated patient. The education program consisted of a slide/tape audiovisual presentation which was reinforced by the pharmacist presenting the program at the patient's bedside. Each patient was randomly assigned to either the study group or control group of patients. A 27-question pretest was given to both the control and study groups of patients to determine their baseline knowledge of congestive heart failure and digoxin therapy. Only the study group of patients received the individualized education program. All patients were then given a posttest to determine the degree of learning that took place during their hospital stay. The patients who received the individualized digoxin education program from a pharmacist demonstrated a significantly greater gain in knowledge about digoxin and congestive heart failure than traditionally-educated patients. It is suggested that hospital pharmacists should deliver an individualized education program to patients taking digoxin during their hospital stay.
开展了一项研究，目的是：（1）制定一个关于地高辛和充血性心力衰竭的个性化视听患者教育计划；（2）确定从药剂师那里接受该教育计划的患者，在地高辛和充血性心力衰竭知识方面的收获是否显著大于接受传统教育的患者。该教育计划包括幻灯片/录像带视听演示，并由药剂师在患者床边讲解来强化。每位患者被随机分配到研究组或对照组。对对照组和研究组患者都进行了一个包含27个问题的预测试，以确定他们关于充血性心力衰竭和地高辛治疗的基线知识。只有研究组患者接受了个性化教育计划。然后对所有患者进行了后测试，以确定他们在住院期间的学习程度。从药剂师那里接受个性化地高辛教育计划的患者，在地高辛和充血性心力衰竭知识方面的收获显著大于接受传统教育的患者。建议医院药剂师在患者住院期间为服用地高辛的患者提供个性化教育计划。
