Nurses are frequently called upon to develop and evaluate printed education materials (PEMs) in their role as patient educators. This article describes the use of the Evaluating Printed Education Materials (EPEM) model as a prescriptive guide and quality standard for developing new PEMs or critiquing existing ones. Outlined in the five phases of the model are a series of nursing, learning, and instructional design principles that are intended to increase the relevance, readability, and comprehensibility of PEMs for the patients and families who use them. The patient-centered focus of the model makes it applicable across nursing specialty areas and care settings. Examples of how the model can be used in the care of orthopaedic patients are presented.
护士作为患者教育者，经常需要开发和评估印刷版教育材料（PEMs）。本文介绍了使用印刷版教育材料评估（EPEM）模型作为开发新的PEMs或评估现有PEMs的规范性指南和质量标准。该模型的五个阶段概述了一系列护理、学习和教学设计原则，旨在提高PEMs对使用它们的患者和家庭的相关性、可读性和可理解性。该模型以患者为中心的重点使其适用于各个护理专业领域和护理环境。文中给出了该模型在骨科患者护理中应用的示例。
