Abstract (English): Objective. To evaluate the effect of family-centered selfcare education via tele-nursing on health literacy and the self-care status of patients with heart failure. Methods. This study is a randomized, controlled clinical trial. Sixty heart failure patients were randomly allocated into two groups: intervention (n=30) y control (n=30). The researcher conducted six 20-minute sessions on how to take care of yourself in heart failure for active family members of patients in the intervention group via mobile phone on Eitaa APP messenger. Before the intervention and one month after it, patients completed the Heart Failure Health Literacy Questionnaire and the Self-Care Assessment Questionnaire. Results. Inter-group comparisons using the Mann-Whitney test showed that before the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups in terms of mean health literacy scores and self-care behaviors(p<0.05). However, after the intervention, a significant difference emerged, with the intervention group exhibiting higher mean scores than the control group in both questionnaires (p<0.001). Intra-group comparisons further revealed that the intervention group’s mean scores for health literacy and self-care behaviors increased significantly after the intervention compared to before (p<0.001). Conclusion. Family-centered education via mobile phone on Eitaa APP messenger improved both health literacy and self-care status among heart failure patients. Thus, employing tele-nursing to engage the family members of heart failure patients can be an effective strategy for delivering educational interventions as part of the treatment program.

Abstract (Spanish): Objetivo. Evaluar el efecto de una intervención educative de enfermería, centrada en la familia, basada en el uso de dispositivos móviles en el mejoramiento de los conocimientos de salud y del estado de autocuidado de los pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca. Métodos. Este estudio es un ensayo controlado aleatorizado. Se asignaron sesenta pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca a dos grupos: intervención (n=30) y control (n=30). El investigador llevó a cabo seis sesiones educativas de veinte minutos sobre el autocuidado a los familiares de las personas con insuficiencia cardíaca del grupo de intervención, utilizando en los teléfonos móviles la aplicación de mensajería Eitaa. Antes y un mes después de la intervención, los pacientes completaron el Cuestionario de Alfabetización Sanitaria sobre Insuficiencia Cardíaca y el Cuestionario de Evaluación del Autocuidado. Resultados. Las comparaciones entre grupos mostraron que, antes de la intervención, no habían diferencias estadísticamente significativas en cuanto a las puntuaciones medias de conocimientos sobre salud y en los comportamientos de autocuidado (p<0.05). Sin embargo, después de la intervención, se observó que el grupo de intervención obtuvo puntuaciones medias más altas que el grupo de control en ambos cuestionarios (p<0.001). Las comparaciones intragrupales confirmaron, además, que las puntuaciones medias del grupo de intervención en cuanto a conocimientos sobre salud y comportamientos de autocuidado aumentaron significativamente después de la intervención en comparación con la evaluación basal (p<0.001). Conclusión. El programa de educación de enfermería centrada en la familia basado en el uso del teléfono móvil con la aplicación de mensajería Eitaa mejoró tanto la alfabetización en salud como el estado de autocuidado entre los pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca. Por lo tanto, el uso de intervención que involucra a los familiares de los pacientes con esta enfermedad puede ser una estrategia eficaz para llevar a cabo el componente educativo como parte del programa del tratamiento.

Abstract (Portuguese): Objetivo. Avaliar o efeito de uma intervenção de educação em enfermagem centrada na família e baseada em dispositivos móveis na melhoria da alfabetização em saúde e do autocuidado em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca. Métodos. Este estudo é um ensaio clínico randomizado. Sessenta pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca foram divididos em dois grupos: intervenção (n = 30) e controle (n = 30). O pesquisador conduziu seis sessões educativas de autocuidado, com duração de vinte minutos, com familiares de pessoas com insuficiência cardíaca no grupo intervenção, utilizando o aplicativo de mensagens Eitaa em seus celulares. Antes e um mês após a intervenção, os pacientes responderam ao Questionário de Alfabetização em Saúde para Insuficiência Cardíaca e ao Questionário de Avaliação de Autocuidado. Resultados. As comparações entre os grupos mostraram que, antes da intervenção, não houve diferenças estatisticamente significativas nas médias de alfabetização em saúde e comportamentos de autocuidado (p<0.05). No entanto, após a intervenção, o grupo de intervenção obteve pontuações médias mais altas do que o grupo controle em ambos os questionários (p<0.001). As comparações intragrupo também confirmaram que as pontuações médias do grupo de intervenção em alfabetização em saúde e comportamentos de autocuidado aumentaram significativamente após a intervenção em comparação com a avaliação inicial (p<0.001). Conclusão. O programa de educação em enfermagem centrado na família, baseado no uso de telefones celulares com o aplicativo de mensagens Eitaa, melhorou tanto a alfabetização em saúde quanto o status de autocuidado entre pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca. Portanto, o uso de uma intervenção envolvendo familiares de pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca pode ser uma estratégia eficaz para implementar o componente educacional como parte do programa de tratamento.
