AimWe evaluated the effectiveness of an accessibility-enhanced multimedia informational educational program in reducing depression and anxiety increasing satisfaction with the information and materials received by patients in coronary care unit.MethodsWe selected 100 patients from among the patients who stayed at or who underwent surgery at one of two ICUs for any reason who satisfied the eligibility criteria, and agreed to participate in the research. The participants were included in the control or experimental group by random selection. The patients completed the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale during ICU admission and 1 week after hospital discharge.ResultsThe difference in HADSA score was significantly greater in patients who received education than in patients who did not receive multimedia nursing education (4.2 ± 0.58 vs. 0.6 ± 0.42; p < .01). Additionally, the difference in HADSD score was significantly greater in patients who received multimedia nursing education (2.2 ± 0.53 vs. 0.64 ± 0.46; p < .01).ConclusionThis study showed that anxiety and depression associated with hospital can be reduced with multimedia nursing education.
