The current study aimed to evaluate pictorial health information (HI) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patient self-management. Each of 14 literal examples of COPD HI was transformed into three pictorials. The preliminary pictorial COPD HI was validated by 10 experts. In total, 60 patients with COPD and 50 health care professionals (HCPs) were selected to perceive the intended meanings in the pictorial HI. All 42 pictures scored ≥0.8 on the content validity index. Patients chose pictorial HI with descriptions of subjective expressions or those that reflected a patient's actual life, whereas HCPs selected HI that was described in simple, direct, and abstract expressions. Results indicate that HCPs are better suited to provide real life–friendly pictorial HI to patients with COPD. Therefore, it is expected that developing pictograms with patients with COPD could help convey intended meanings. [Journal of Gerontological Nursing, 48(10), 41–46.] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
