Cardiac rehabilitation knowledge in patients with coronary heart disease in Baoding city of China: A cross-sectional study.


ABSTRACT:

Objective

The purpose of this study is to assess the awareness on cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).

Methods

Inpatients diagnosed with coronary heart disease were recruited from 3 hospitals in this study. The study employed a cardiac structured questionnaire to assess respondents' level of awareness, and bivariate to analyze the sociodemographic factors that influence the awareness on CR.

Results

Of all 500 participants, 66.40% were male and the mean age was 62.51  ±  9.96 years. The mean score of knowledge was 44.00  ±  17.00 (score range: 0-93), and the mean level of awareness was 47.31% (awareness range: 0-100%). The highest mean level of awareness was in the reexamination subscale (98%) and the lower were in the basic information about CR program, SP optimized medication and heart rate subscale. Bivariate analysis showed that higher age was associated with less knowledge. Patients with higher education level and better income status had better knowledge. And patients who lived in rural and had no jobs had less knowledge.

Conclusions

This study showed low levels of awareness on CR program in CHD patients in Baoding. Therefore, the need for health education is indicated in this study to improve the awareness on CR among CHD patients.
