摘要:This study was an attempt to find out the constellation of factors interplaying for non-compliance with non-pharmacological advices to percutaneous coronary intervention patients attending Combined Military Hospital Dhaka, Bangladesh. This was a qualitative, obtrusive (reactive), descriptive socio-medical research using face to face in-depth interview with conveniently selected eighty-two ‘peer reviewed’ samples of percutaneous coronary intervention patients. Data were analyzed using limited descriptive statistics as well as Rothman’s concept of causal constellation, which were interpreted through both etic and emic approaches to draw conclusion. All ethical issues including avoiding plagiarism have been taken care of. The findings of the study show that necessary factors responsible for non-compliance of non-pharmacological management advices making web of constellation were ‘lack of self-control’, ‘addiction’, ‘ignorance’, ‘laziness’, ‘health problem’, and ‘time constrain work’. The study concluded with the suggestions for strengthening health literacy among percutaneous coronary intervention patients in Combined Military Hospital Dhaka. The study hinted for further probing of constellation factors among such patients in general population.
