This study was performed in order to determine the effects of education and the type of education with regard to behaviors, on risk factors and in decreasing risk factors in patients who have experienced myocardial infarction for the first time, respectively. The study enrolled 100 patients with acute myocardial infarction admitted to the coronary care unit, department of cardiology of a university hospital, between 30th of March 2003 and 15th of February 2004. A two-part survey was used to collect the data. The questionnaires comprised of a socio-demographic questionnaire and an evaluation form of the result of care. Differences between average scores after care in the experimental group were found to be statistically significant between 1st, 2nd and the 3rd controls, whereas the difference between 1st, 2nd and the 3rd controls in control group was found to be insignificant. This study showed that a planned, supported and repetitive educational program initiated at an early stage is more effective for patients.
