Abstract:
This article discusses the theoretical development of a nursing intervention program to enhance recovery over the first year following sudden cardiac arrest. Concepts from social cognitive theory and domains of concern following sudden cardiac arrest underpin a tailored and standardized nursing intervention. The nursing intervention program is designed for delivery by means of telephone and through the mail. Testing of the nursing intervention program is underway using a clinical trial design.
