Abstract
A quasi-experimental study aimed to investigate the effects of both teach-back and blended training methods on the contribution to self-care and perceived care burden among family caregivers of patients with heart failure. Seventy family caregivers of patients with heart failure were randomly allocated to two groups: one receiving the teach-back method and the other receiving the blended training method. Data were collected before, 1 month, and 3 months after the intervention. Data collection included demographic data and two tools: the Caregiver Contribution to Self-Care of Heart Failure Index and the Caregiver Burden Questionnaire for Heart Failure. Both teach-back and blended training methods were effective in educating family caregivers of patients with heart failure requiring home care. However, the teach-back method demonstrated better outcomes for the two concepts examined in this study.
