Why the study?
Valid tools to assess self-efficacy in cardiovascular diseases were needed to provide evidence-based practices and select the most suitable measuring instruments.
Which self-efficacy instruments have the best psychometric properties for use in patients with cardiovascular disease?
Population
Nine studies evaluating five self-efficacy instruments in cardiovascular disease
Design
Psychometric systematic review
Key result

Systematic Review
Which self-efficacy instruments have the best psychometric properties for use in patients with cardiovascular disease?
The Self-Efficacy Expectations After Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Implantation Scale is the most psychometrically sound instrument for assessing self-efficacy in cardiovascular disease patients.
Kavradım et al. (2020) conducted a systematic review in Cardiovascular disease. Self-efficacy instruments was evaluated on Psychometric properties according to the COSMIN checklist. The Self-Efficacy Expectations After Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Implantation Scale was recommended as the most suitable of 5 evaluated instruments for assessing self-efficacy.
