To assess the effect of education based on Pender’s health promotion model versus control group on health promoting behaviors in patients undergoing coronary angioplasty

This is a randomized clinical trial, phase II, in which 96 eligible patients will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups

The eligible patients undergoing coronary angioplasty referring to the Farshchian Heart Hospital in Hamadan city during the study period will be enrolled in the trial and will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups through the block randomization.

Primary outcome: Spiritual growth and individual self-actualizationو responsibility about health, interpersonal relationships, stress management, the amount of physical activity, adherence to a healthy diet

The patients will be randomly assigned to intervention and control groups using block randomization. For this purpose, we will prepare four sheets of paper, writing on two sheets the name of the intervention and on the other two sheets the name of the control. The paper sheets will be pooled, placed in a container, and randomly drawn one at a time for each patient without replacement until all four sheets are drawn. The four paper sheets will be then placed back into the container, and this action repeated until the sample size is reached.
