  • Improving health literacy of patients with pulmonary embolism through evidence-based health information

    Open Access•Simone Fischer, Julia Reizner et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2026

    Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common condition with significant physical and psychological impairments. This study was intended to examine the feasibility of how evidence-based health information on PE in the form of a brochure can be distributed and used to strengthen PE-specific health literacy. Materials and methods Patients with PE were recruited during their hospital stay and were randomized in an intervention group which was provi…

  • Depression in patients with severe somatic disease – study protocol of the prospective Desie-study

    Open Access•Simone Fischer, Dennis Freuer et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Psychology•2025

    The study was prospectively registered in the German Clinical Trials Registry and WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (registration number: DRKS00033245, date of registration: 14 December 2023) prior to the start of recruitment

  • Depression mediates the association between health literacy and health-related quality of life after myocardial infarction

    Open Access•Inge Kirchberger, Simone Fischer et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2024

    Depression mediates the associations between HL and disease-specific HRQOL in patients with myocardial infarction

  • Mental health literacy in patients with acute myocardial infarction

    Open Access•Inge Kirchberger, Simone Fischer et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2024

    Elderly and poorly educated patients were at risk of poor MHL. Further studies are required to specify the role of MHL in post-AMI life and health care

  • Health literacy in patients with pulmonary embolism

    Open Access•Simone Fischer, Anja Kalch et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2023

    Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common cardiovascular disease and health literacy is necessary to deal with its consequences after the acute event. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a new questionnaire to measure PE-specific health literacy. Methods A mixed-methods design with qualitative and quantitative elements was used in the development process. A literature review about health literacy concepts and instruments and in…

  • On the need for narratives in patient information

    Open Access•Anja Kalch, Constanze Küchler et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Communication•2022

    The inclusion of narratives in evidence-based patient information is a heavily discussed topic in literature. Narratives elicit intense engagement and emotional insights, but may also cause unintended persuasion effects. There is mixed evidence that adding narratives to non-narrative factual patient information is valuable for patients. In addition, providing patients with narratives about the outcome of treatments has been found to bias treatmen…

  • The German version of the Pulmonary Embolism Quality of Life (PEmb-QoL) questionnaire

    Open Access•Simone Fischer, Christa Meisinger et al.•ARTICLE•Quality of Life Research•2022

    Despite existing floor effect, most standard criteria of reliability and validity were met and indications for appropriateness of the PEmb-QoL summary score could be found. Apart from some restrictions concerning the factor structure and the dimension of social limitations, our results support the use of the PEmb-QoL questionnaire for evaluating PE-specific quality of life. Future studies should seek replication in different samples to ensure gen…
