Resumo: This study was carried out to assess patients’ knowledge on anticoagulant therapy in an outpatient clinic. A questionnaire with ten questions with closed answers was applied. Correct answers to about 80% of the questions were considered satisfactory. Out of the 120 evaluated patients, 77 (64.1%) showed satisfactory knowledge, with an average of 7.8±1.7 correct answers. As to the International Normalized Ratio (INR), 69.4% of the sample was beyond therapeutic range, and 42.5% had hemorrhages in the last 6 months. Factors such as education level, income, hemorrhagic event, anticoagulation time, and gender did not show statistically significant difference. There is an obvious need for a systematic follow-up by health care professionals, using educational measures, to detect the difficulties faced by patients, maintaining an optimal INR.

Se utilizó un cuestionario compuesto por 10 preguntas con respuestas objetivas. Un acierto mínimo del 80% caracterizó un conocimiento satisfactorio. De los 120 pacientes evaluados, la mayoría (64,1%) obtuvo conocimiento satisfactorio, con un promedio de aciertos de 7.8±1.7. Respecto al International Normatized Ratio (INR), el 69,4% de la muestra se encontraba sin tratamiento y el 42,5% presentó eventos hemorrágicos en los últimos 6 meses. Respecto a factores que podrían intervenir en el conocimiento (como escolaridad, nivel de ingresos, evento hemorrágico, tiempo de anticoagulación y sexo) no se encontró diferencia estadística significativa. Se hace evidente por lo tanto la necesidad de un seguimiento sistemático a través de medidas educativas, llevado a cabo por profesionales de la salud capacitados para detectar las dificultades encontradas por los pacientes para el mantenimiento de un INR deseado.Estudo desenvolvido com o objetivo de verificar o conhecimento de pacientes acompanhados em ambulatório sobre a terapêutica com anticoagulação oral. Foi utilizado um questionário elaborado para este estudo composto de dez questões com respostas fechadas. O acerto mínimo de 80% das questões caracterizou um conhecimento satisfatório. Dos 120 pacientes avaliados, a maioria, 77 pacientes (64,1%), obteve conhecimento satisfatório com uma média de acertos de 7,8±1,7. Quanto ao International Normatized Ratio (INR), 69,4% da amostra encontrava-se fora da faixa terapêutica, e 42,5% apresentaram eventos hemorrágicos nos últimos seis meses. Quando analisados os fatores que poderiam interferir no conhecimento, como escolaridade, renda, evento hemorrágico, tempo de anticoagulação e sexo, não foi encontrada diferença estatisticamente significativa. Evidencia-se a necessidade de um acompanhamento sistemático, através de medidas educacionais por profissionais de saúde capacitados, na tentativa de detectar as dificuldades encontradas pelos pacientes com relação à manutenção de um INR desejávelEscola de Enfermagem da UFRGS2008-08-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/rgenf/article/view/5582Revista Gaúcha de Enfermagem; Vol. 29 No. 2 (2008); 207Revista Gaúcha de Enfermagem; v. 29 n. 2 (2008); 2071983-14470102-6933reponame:Revista Gaúcha de Enfermageminstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/rgenf/article/view/5582/3193De Borba Henn, ClarissaRejane Rabelo, EneidaBoaz, MartaNogueira De Souza, Emilianeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-11-26T19:50:18Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/5582Revistahttp://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/RevistaGauchadeEnfermagemPUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.php||revistappgdir@ufrgs.br1983-14470102-6933opendoar:2019-11-26T19:50:18Revista Gaúcha de Enfermagem - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
