What this Trial Is About

cardiac rehabilitation includes topics such as smoking cessation recommendations, weight management, nutritional counseling, blood pressure management, physical activity counseling, diabetes management, psychosocial management in order to reduce CV risk factors, reduce morbidity and mortality rates, and improve the individual's quality of life . In CV diseases, it has been shown that education and motivation provided under the leadership of nurses are effective in preventing the disease. This success stems from the nurse's holistic approach to the individual and determination of individual-specific needs. It is important for nurses, who are seen as a source of support by the society, to identify empowerment in CV patients and to support patients for independent living. kigai is a well-known term in Japan. This term is sometimes translated as 'purpose in life' and sometimes it can be defined as 'joy of life'. When Ikigai is mentioned, both the source of Ikigai within the individual or the object of Ikigai, and the psychological/emotional state (Ikigai-kan) in which Ikigai is felt come to mind. Accordingly, 'Ikigai' can be defined as the source or object of the purpose/joy of life, and 'Ikigai-kan' as the psychological/emotional state in which these are felt. In addition to the ways in which individuals with cardiovascular disease manage their disease, take precautions against risk factors, and perform strengthening exercises, determining the patients' current state of mind is also an important element. In this sense, physicians and nurses in the clinic take these elements into consideration when planning the care to be provided to patients. No study has been found in the literature to date that evaluates the relationship between CAH strengthening and Ikigia. Based on this information, this study aims to examine the relationship between CAH strengthening and Ikigai. It is expected that the research results will guide physicians and nurses who care for individuals with CAH in planning the care to be provided to patients and contribute to the literature.
