Key result
Expert consensus establishes a 54-item health promotion program for aortic dissection survivors.
Why the study?
Health promotion can aid recovery in aortic dissection survivors but requires a systematic program supported by theory and evidence.
A health promotion program for aortic dissection survivors was systematically constructed using expert consensus, providing a scientific framework for clinical recovery support.
Hypothesis-generating framework for aortic dissection survivor support; prospective validation required before clinical adoption.
For aortic dissection survivors, health promotion can help them recover from the disease, which requires systematic program support. The aim of this study was to construct a health promotion program for aortic dissection survivors. Literature search, group discussion, and expert consultation were used. The Integrated Theory of Health Behavior Change was the theoretical basis of the program. Multiple medical-related databases were searched. Based on a literature search and group discussion, 3 primary items, 8 secondary items, and 34 tertiary items were formed. After 2 rounds of expert consultation (number of experts = 25), 3 primary items, 16 secondary items, and 54 tertiary items were retained. The authority coefficients of the 2 rounds of experts were 0.890 and 0.905, respectively. The Kendall W coefficient of the 2 rounds were 0.210 to 0.370 (P < .05) and 0.221 to 0.378 (P < .05), respectively. The mean importance value and coefficient of variation of each item were >3.5 and <0.25, respectively. The health promotion program constructed in this study was reasonable and scientific, which could provide a reference for clinical work.

Lang et al. (2023) studied Aortic dissection survivors (n=25). Health promotion program based on the Integrated Theory of Health Behavior Change was evaluated on Construction of program items and expert consensus metrics (authority coefficient, Kendall W coefficient). A health promotion program for aortic dissection survivors was constructed through expert consultation, resulting in 3 primary, 16 secondary, and 54 tertiary items with high expert agreement.
