In the new millennium, coronary heart disease (CHD) is looming large as the new epidemic afflicting Indians. Epidemiological transition with increasing life expectancy and demographic shifts in population age-profile, combined with life style and increase in the levels of cardio-vascular risk factors is accelerating the CHD epidemic in India. The present study was undertaken with the specific objectives, viz., To find out the complications of coronary heart patients, to assess the knowledge and attitudinal change towards the disease and to find out the risk factors and study the effect of nutritional counselling regarding coronary heart disease. The data were collected from both Cardiology and Medicine Department of M.K.C.G. Medical College and Hospital, Berhampur of Ganjam district. A total of 30 both male and female coronary heart disease patients as samples had been selected from various age groups, sex, socio-economic status and income groups. After the collection of data it was carefully edited, systematically classified, tabulated and presented through tables. It is observed that in-adequate diet, busy schedule of work and ignorance of nutrient aspects of diet are the main cause of this disease.

Abstract


In the new millennium, coronary heart disease (CHD) is looming large as the new epidemic afflicting Indians. Epidemiological transition with increasing life expectancy and demographic shifts in population age-profile, combined with life style and increase in the levels of cardio-vascular risk factors is accelerating the CHD epidemic in India. The present study was undertaken with the specific objectives, viz., To find out the complications of coronary heart patients, to assess the knowledge and attitudinal change towards the disease and to find out the risk factors and study the effect of nutritional counselling regarding coronary heart disease. The data were collected from both Cardiology and Medicine Department of M.K.C.G. Medical College and Hospital, Berhampur of Ganjam district. A total of 30 both male and female coronary heart disease patients as samples had been selected from various age groups, sex, socio-economic status and income groups. After the collection of data it was carefully edited, systematically classified, tabulated and presented through tables. It is observed that in-adequate diet, busy schedule of work and ignorance of nutrient aspects of diet are the main cause of this disease.
