Abstract

The purpose of this exploratory research was to study the relationship between some of the fundamental factors regarding patients’ perceptions and expectations on the outcomes of coronary artery angiography (CAG) procedures at the Queen Sirikit Heart Center of the Northeast. The study was conducted among 385 patients aged 18 years and over who received a hospital appointment card for their first CAG at the admission Center. Data were collected using a demographic data form and the patients’ perceptions and expectations of outcomes of CAG questionnaire. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient values of the questionnaires on the perception of CAG and the questionnaire on their expectations of outcomes of CAG was 0.96 and 0.99, respectively. The data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and Pearson’ s correlations.

 The results showed that the majority of patients were male, an average age of 62.08 years, were unemployed, and had high blood pressure and diabetes. Additionally, they were primarily covered by the universal coverage scheme (UCS). The patients’ overall perceptions of CAG was at a low level. The outcome expectations for CAG were at a high level. The fundamental factors that were positively related to the patients’ overall perception and outcome expectations for CAG including education level, family monthly income, occupation, and healthcare benefit system. Therefore, based on the low level of patients’ perceptions regarding CAG, a model should be designed or developed to provide relevant information to patients before CAG procedures so that the patients and their relatives have sufficient information to make decisions about coronary artery angiography.
