Purpose: The research was carried out in patients with open heart surgery with the aim of determining the effects of self-sufficiency on medication consistency and quality of life. Tools and Methods: This diagnostic and cutting-edge study included 132 patients who had previously undergone open heart surgery. As a data collection tool, the Personal Information Form, the Barnason Efficiency Expect Scale Cardiological Surgery Version (BEBÖ), the Morisky 8-matter Drug Compliance Survey (MMAS-8) and the SF-36 Life Quality Scale were used. In the analysis of the data, identifiable statistics were used, Mann Whitney U test, Kruskal Wallis test and Spearman Correlation analysis. Results: The patient’s average score from scales is BEBÖ:43.50±5.90, MMAS-8: 5.32±1.90, SF−36 physical summary score: 36.40±9.54 and SF-36 mental summary score: 37.74±9.20. The research group found that the highest self-care from the BEBÖ subdimensions and the lowest (13.00±2.16) from the physical (8.00±1.41) subdimensions were scored. The patient's lowest physical role difficulty from the SF-36 subdimensions was 21.78±31.25, the highest pain was 65.09±25.46. While there was no connection between the level of self-efficiency and the drug conformity, a meaningful relationship between the quality of life was found (p<0.05). Barnoson Efficiency Expect Scale scores increased while SF-36 physical and mental summary scores also increased. Results: The study found that patients' self-effectiveness levels were medium, drug harmons were low, and their quality of life was bad. It is believed that it will be useful to provide continuous training and consultation services to improve patients’ self-efficiency levels, their medication conformity and their quality of life.
