Key result

Education using mind mapping and behavior rating scales significantly improved medication compliance at 3 months compared to standard education (60.9% vs. 36.2%, p=0.023).

Why the study?

Does education using mind mapping and behavior rating scales improve medical compliance behavior in atrial fibrillation patients post-radiofrequency ablation?

Population

108 atrial fibrillation (AF) patients post-radiofrequency ablation

Comparison

Structured PICO

Does education using mind mapping and behavior rating scales improve medical compliance behavior in atrial fibrillation patients post-radiofrequency ablation?

P
Population
108 atrial fibrillation patients post-radiofrequency ablation followed for up to 3 months.
I
Intervention
Education using mind mapping and behavior rating scales added to standard education
C
Comparator
Standard education alone
O
Outcome
Medical compliance behavior assessed using a medical compliance behavior scale at baseline, discharge, and 1- to 3-month follow-upspatient reported

Main Result

Absolute Event Rate: 60.9% vs 36.2%

p-value: p=0.023

Integrating mind mapping with behavior rating scales into post-ablation care significantly improves medication compliance and quality of life in AF patients.

Xu et al. (2025) conducted an RCT in Atrial fibrillation (n=108). Mind mapping combined with behavior rating scales vs. Standard education was evaluated on Medication compliance rate at 3 months (p=0.023). Education using mind mapping and behavior rating scales significantly improved medication compliance at 3 months compared to standard education (60.9% vs. 36.2%, p=0.023).
