The research samples were 60patients after their first heart attack who were randomly divided into two groups (patient-centered: 30) and (family-centered: 30).The first, their blood pressure,pulse pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, ejection fraction, and body mass index were checked using researcher-made checklist.Afterwards, computerized education courses were held for patient education and active family members in three areas(food, medicine and exercise) in three sessions of 30-45 min. The same educational content was provided to the patients in the control group. Three months after the intervention, the above-mentioned factors were checked again. Results: Data were analyzed using SPSS V.22 and chi-square, independent and paired t test. There was significant difference between the two groups in blood sugar level (P =0.03), blood lipids (P <0.0001), systolic blood pressure (P =0.048), diastolic blood pressure (P =0.004), the pulse pressure (P=0.016), Body mass index (P <0.0001), and the frequency of chest pain with (P = 0.014 ) and ejection fraction (P =0.014) in the after intervention.
