About this study

Official title: Feeding Education in Patients Submitted to Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty: Randomized Clinical Trial

The simple knowledge that practices healthy lifestyle are important to reduce or prevent the progression of cardiovascular diseases it is not enough for effective changes accordingly. To nutritional education be successful, needs to promote changes in eating habits and not just transmit information. This is a behavioral intervention study in 200 consecutive patients submitted to percutaneous transluminary coronary angioplasty. The participants were randomized in two groups: intervention and control.

The intervention was a dialogic nutritional counseling and the control arm was a traditional nutritional counseling.

All participants will undergo long-term follow-up for cardiovascular events.

Read the detailed description

Patients were hospitalized to realize elective coronary angioplasty in a especialized hospital in cardiovascular disease.

All data were obtained by a trained nutritionist.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TraditionalOther

  • BehavioralBehavioural

    The intervention group will go through 4 meetings of food education, to be held within the institution, with approximately 1 hour long, composed of 3 to 8 patients, who may or may not be accompanied by a relative. The first three meetings will be monthly and the fourth will be 6 months after the last one. Each meeting will be developed within the context of dialogic and participatory education, directed to the adoption of a healthy diet and prevention and control of cardiovascular risk factors. The meetings will follow the order: Investigation, Contextualization, Awareness and Strengthening the nutritional concepts, according to the didactics of educator Paulo Freire.
