title: [Pilot study for evaluating patient education in asthma, bronchitis, emphysema with the support of the Bad Reichenhall Research Institute for Diseases of Respiratory Organs, Inc].
abstract: In a pilot evaluation study, 186 out of-so far-600 patients who underwent 40 "educational cycles" were submitted to a controlled interview to determine the learning effect, patient's views on educational matters and, at least in part, on the success of the latter in terms of improved quality of life, treatment and the social environment. For this purpose, questions that appeared similar while having the identical content, were asked prior to "schooling", immediately following such instruction and six months later. The return rate of the 6-month questionnaires achieved an astonishing almost 80%, which represents a very good figure. Sixteen questions were asked about the contents of instruction, which, in turn, divided up into six complexes.
