This study was designed to investigate the influence of health education grounded in the knowledge, attitude, and practice model on individuals suffering from cerebrovascular stenosis combined with coronary heart disease who underwent concurrent interventional treatment. A total of sixty patients diagnosed with cerebrovascular stenosis accompanied by coronary heart disease and admitted to The Third People’s Hospital of Hubei Province between February 2019 and April 2021 were enrolled in the research. These participants were randomly allocated into two equal groups: a control group (n = 30) and an intervention group (n = 30). While the control group received conventional nursing care, the intervention group received structured health education based on the knowledge, attitude, and practice framework. The two groups were then compared with respect to their satisfaction levels, anxiety, depression, as well as knowledge, attitude, and practice scores.
Patients in the intervention group reported markedly greater satisfaction than those in the control group. Moreover, the intervention group demonstrated significantly better self-efficacy and exhibited lower levels of anxiety and depression at discharge, 1 month post-discharge, and 3 months post-discharge. In addition, the intervention group obtained substantially higher knowledge, attitude, and practice scores across all three assessment time points compared with the control group (P < 0.05). These outcomes indicate that applying the knowledge, attitude, and practice model to patients with cerebrovascular stenosis and coronary heart disease can substantially improve their psychological status, strengthen self-efficacy, and deepen their comprehension of the condition.
