Abstract

cardiac pilot study self-efficacy self-management type 2 diabetes
Background: Evidence indicates self-management programmes based on improving self-efficacy in managing diabetes can reduce the risk of a further cardiac event. Many current cardiac rehabilitation or diabetes self-management programmes do not address the needs of people with both type 2 diabetes and a critical cardiac condition in their transition from coronary care unit (CCU) to home. Aims/Methods: The aim was to develop and pilot test a Cardiac-Diabetes Self-Management Program (CDSMP) using an experimental design. Findings/Conclusion: Results demonstrated the feasibility of the CDSMP for CCU patients with type 2 diabetes in their transition to home, and a full study is warranted. © 2009 International Council of Nurses.
