Abstract
The purpose of this study is to integrate evidence on predictors, consequences, in addition to the strategies for enhancing health literacy (HL) for patients with acute coronary artery diseases. An integrative review was conducted by searching four main electronic databases: the Web of Science, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and MEDLINE. Twenty-three studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the final review process. The review identified the most common predictors, consequences, and relationship of HL with health outcomes in patients with acute coronary artery disease. In addition to the main strategies that enhance HL, patients with or at risk for acute coronary artery disease need a good level of HL to cope with the disease's consequences. It is recommended to include routine assessment and management of HL levels in acute coronary artery disease treatment protocols to improve clinical outcomes.
本研究的目的是整合预测因素、后果的证据,以及提高急性冠状动脉疾病患者健康素养(HL)的策略。通过搜索四个主要的电子数据库:Web of Science、PubMed、ScienceDirect和MEDLINE进行了综合评价。23项研究符合纳入标准,并被纳入最终审查程序。该综述确定了急性冠状动脉疾病患者中最常见的预测因素、后果以及HL与健康结局的关系。除了提高HL的主要策略外,患有或有急性冠状动脉疾病风险的患者需要良好的HL水平来应对疾病的后果。建议在急性冠状动脉疾病治疗方案中纳入HL水平的常规评估和管理,以改善临床结果。
