Discussion

Descriptive study evaluates patient knowledge of safe measures after ICD implantation, suggesting targeted education.

Patients’ knowledge regarding safe measures post-ICD was found to be at a fair level for activities and electrical devices, but poor for magnetic and medical devices.
The study involved 70 patients attending an outpatient setting for routine checks, revealing significant associations between knowledge levels and education or sex.
Data analysis utilized descriptive and inferential methods, with findings indicating a need for enhanced education on safe measures among patients.
With a majority of patients exhibiting poor knowledge overall, targeted post-intervention education may help reduce unnecessary activity limitations.

Sadaq et al. (2025) studied this question.
