Full-heartedly in patient education 31.07.2024.

Patient education plays a key role in health care because it helps patients understand their condition, motivates them to take an active role in their treatment and strengthens their self-confidence.

The education brochure “Myocardial infarction, what now?” was developed as part of a national project in Croatia. It was created in cooperation with five hospital centers - KBC Zagreb, KBC Split, KBC Rijeka, KBC Osijek, Clinical Hospital Dubrava. This initiative brought together the expertise of 25 professionals.


The brochure is designed to provide patients with all of the key information about myocardial infarction, including the understanding of the condition, identifying risk factors, learning about treatment options and answers to frequently asked questions.


By empowering patients with knowledge, such educational materials can significantly improve their commitment to treatment which ultimately helps pharmacists and doctors provide more effective patient care.
