Abstract

Background: Acute coronary syndrome is a significant global health concern that can affect patients' health outcomes and quality of life. In addition, adherence to treatment and health literacy can affect health outcomes.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between treatment adherence, health literacy, and quality of life among patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 407 patients in Iran from April 2019 to November 2019. Patients were selected by convenience sampling method. Data were collected using demographic questionnaire, World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version, Adherence to Treatment Questionnaire, and Health Literacy for Iranian Adults questionnaire. SPSS 25 was used for statistical analysis.

Results: Based on descriptive statistics in this study, most of the participants had good treatment adherence level (56.5%); 28.7% of the participants had insufficient health literacy level. The mean score of quality of life was 51.41 ± 12.03, which was greater than the midpoint of the questionnaire. Furthermore, Pearson's correlation coefficient showed a negative association between health literacy, treatment adherence (r = -0.167, p < .01), and quality of life (r = -0.153, p < .01), and a positive association between treatment adherence and quality of life (r = 0.169, p < .01).

Conclusion: The results of the current study showed a negative relationship between health literacy, quality of life, and treatment adherence among patients with acute coronary syndrome. [HLRP: Health Literacy Research and Practice. 2023;7(2):e71-e79.].

急性冠脉综合征患者健康素养、生活质量和治疗依从性的关系

背景:急性冠脉综合征是一个重要的全球健康问题，可影响患者的健康结局和生活质量。此外，坚持治疗和卫生知识普及可影响健康结果。目的:探讨急性冠脉综合征患者治疗依从性、健康素养与生活质量的关系。方法:对2019年4月至2019年11月在伊朗进行的407例患者进行横断面研究。采用方便抽样法选取患者。使用人口调查问卷、世界卫生组织生活质量简要版、治疗依从性调查问卷和伊朗成年人健康素养调查问卷收集数据。采用SPSS 25进行统计分析。结果:根据本研究的描述性统计，大多数受试者的治疗依从性水平较好(56.5%);28.7%的参与者健康素养水平不足。生活质量平均得分为51.41±12.03，高于问卷中点。此外，Pearson相关系数显示健康素养、治疗依从性(r = -0.167, p < 0.01)和生活质量(r = -0.153, p < 0.01)呈负相关，治疗依从性与生活质量呈正相关(r = 0.169, p < 0.01)。结论:本研究结果显示急性冠脉综合征患者的健康素养、生活质量和治疗依从性之间存在负相关关系。健康素养研究与实践[j].中国卫生科学，2013;7(2):e71-e79。
