| Abstract |
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation, educational needs, and self care in inpatients with coronary artery disease in China and to provide basic data for development of cardiac rehabilitation programs. Method: From Jan. 16th to Feb. 26th, 2009, 104 patients with coronary artery disease were hospitalized in general hospitals in K and H city in China. They were interviewed with a structured questionnaire. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation analysis. Results: In inpatients with coronary artery disease in China, the score of knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation was average ($66{pm}.18$), and the score of educational needs was high ($4.27{pm}.49$). The score of self care was average ($3.12{pm}.58$). The regular exercise group (p= .005) had a high knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation, the nonsmoking group (p= .022) and regular exercise group (p= .037) did well by themselves. Educational needs also affected the overall knowledge of inpatients with coronary artery disease (r= .288, p= .003). Conclusion: This study suggests that knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation and educational needs should be considered in enhancing cardiac rehabilitation programs designed for inpatients with coronary artery disease in China. |
