Web Based Cardiac Rehabilitation Support in Coronary Artery Patients

First of all, a preliminary interview was made with the patients in the experimental group, and their information needs were evaluated individually. Which trainings he should receive and his priorities were determined with the patient. After the training requirements were determined, the general introduction of the website was made and they were allowed to register. Experimental group patients received both training on the website and counseling over the phone for 12 weeks after they started working. A total of 3 phone calls were made with the patients in the first week, 4th and 8th weeks. The interviews lasted an average of 20 minutes. In each phone call, patients were informed and reminded. When patients needed, an average of 2-3 more phone calls were made and information was provided on the subjects they needed.
