Development and evaluation of a health literacy promotion program using line application on self-care behavior and lower low-density lipoprotein levels in persons with chronic coronary syndrome
Keywords:
Health literacy, self-care behavior, low-density lipoprotein, chronic coronary syndrome, LINE applicationAbstract
Purpose: To develop and test a health literacy promotion program using the LINE application for individuals with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS).
Design: This study involved the development of a health literacy promotion program via the LINE application and examined its effects on self-care behaviors and LDL-C levels in patients with CCS.
Methods: The program development process was divided into three phases: 1) Identifying challenges faced by patients with CCS through a literature review, 2) Designing and developing the health literacy promotion program using the LINE application, and 3) Testing the program with a group of CCS patients. The program was evaluated for appropriateness, content continuity, and linguistic clarity. The sample consisted of 15 CCS patients receiving treatment at Lerdsin Hospital. Research instruments included the health literacy promotion program, a satisfaction survey, and the Self-Care of Coronary Heart Disease Inventory. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (percentages, means, and standard deviations).
Results: The health literacy promotion program using the LINE application received average scores of 4.6 (±0.48) for ease of use, 5.0 (±0.00) for practical utility, 4.53 (±0.51) for safety, and 4.8 (±0.35) for overall satisfaction. These results suggest that the program is feasible and appropriate for future studies with larger sample sizes.
