| Abstract | Background: Education is crucial to improve the preventive behaviors of patients with hepatitis B. The Professional collaboration of care-centered model (PCCC) is one novel educational model that has shown promising effects in recent studies. Objectives: Thus, this study aimed to assess the effects of patient education based on PCCC on the knowledge of patients with hepatitis B regarding preventive behaviors. Methods: This randomized clinical trial study was conducted on 50 patients with hepatitis B in Ahvaz Imam and Razi hospitals in Iran during 2014. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: an intervention (n = 25) and a control (n = 25) group. First, patients in both groups completed a demographical and clinical checklist as well as a knowledge questionnaire. Patients in the control group received routine education, while patients in the intervention group were educated based on PCCC for 4 sessions. At the end of the 4-week intervention, patients completed the questionnaires again. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 22 using Student’s t test and the chi-squared test. Results: Before the intervention, there were no significant differences between the two groups (P = 0.133), while after the intervention a significant difference was seen between the two groups, favoring the intervention group based on the increased mean score (P < 0.001). In addition, a significant difference was observed between the intervention group’s pre and post scores (P < 0.001), while no significant difference was seen in the control group (P = 0.56). Conclusions: Regarding our results, education based on the PCCC model could be effective in improving knowledge in patients with hepatitis B. Thus, it is recommended that this model be used as a simple method to improve preventive behaviors. | en |
