Cardiovascular diseases are becoming a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries, where communicable diseases are being brought under control. Among them coronary artery disease has become the most important cause of premature death and disability in the population. Therefore, present study aims to assess the effectiveness of Planned Teaching Program (PTP) on knowledge and practice regarding prevention of coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD. Pre experimental research design was selected to conduct the study. 120 patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD were selected for this study by using purposive sampling technique. Result revealed that around 75% patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD had inadequate knowledge score and practice score in pre-test. Whereas in post-test approximately 80% patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD had adequate knowledge score and practice score. The Paired ‘t’ test value for knowledge level was 33.67 and for practice level it was 29.41, which was greater than table value at .05 level of significance. This shows that there is significant difference between the pre-test and post-test level of knowledge and practice regarding prevention of coronary artery disease among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD. There was significant positive correlation r = 0.570 found between post-test knowledge score and post-test practice score. There was no significant association found between the pre-test knowledge score and pre-test practice score regarding prevention of coronary artery disease among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD with demographic variables. Conclusion: Study concluded with strong need for proper health education in enhancing knowledge and practice regarding prevention of coronary artery disease among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD.

Abstract


Cardiovascular diseases are becoming a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries, where communicable diseases are being brought under control. Among them coronary artery disease has become the most important cause of premature death and disability in the population. Therefore, present study aims to assess the effectiveness of Planned Teaching Program (PTP) on knowledge and practice regarding prevention of coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD. Pre experimental research design was selected to conduct the study. 120 patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD were selected for this study by using purposive sampling technique. Result revealed that around 75% patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD had inadequate knowledge score and practice score in pre-test. Whereas in post-test approximately 80% patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD had adequate knowledge score and practice score. The Paired ‘t’ test value for knowledge level was 33.67 and for practice level it was 29.41, which was greater than table value at .05 level of significance. This shows that there is significant difference between the pre-test and post-test level of knowledge and practice regarding prevention of coronary artery disease among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD. There was significant positive correlation r = 0.570 found between post-test knowledge score and post-test practice score. There was no significant association found between the pre-test knowledge score and pre-test practice score regarding prevention of coronary artery disease among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD with demographic variables. Conclusion: Study concluded with strong need for proper health education in enhancing knowledge and practice regarding prevention of coronary artery disease among patients with modifiable risk factors of CAD.
