Perception of causes of disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome on risk factors of cardiovascular disease
Índice
Acute coronary syndrome (hereinafter referred as ACS) is one of the main cardiovascular diseases that is a life-threatening one. That’s why it is highly relevant to pay attention to the knowledge acquired by patients on the risk factors causing cardiovascular disease (hereinafter referred as CVD). The aim of the research is to analyse the awareness of causes of disease in patients with ACS. Research methodology is based on a quantitative research, whereas the adapted questionnaire has been used for data collection. Part of the instrument on possible causes of disease from Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ-R) has been applied for this research. Internal compatibility of their perception scale is sufficiently high and Cronbach’s alpha equals to 0.84. SPSS 17.0.1 for Windows statistics software package has been applied for the research accomplished. Research sample consists of 199 patients with ACS. The research has been accomplished with regard to the principles of research ethics. After the perception of causes of disease in patients with ACS depending on sociodemographic indicators has been analysed it has been identified that women considerably more frequently have emphasized heredity (r=0.16; p=0.028), whereas men emphasized smoking (r=-0.17; p=0.015). The researched ones in the majority of cases tend to relate the causes of their disease with risk factors and psychological aspects; the least of the researched ones related them to coincidence and immune system. After the opinion of the researched has been analysed on 3 most important causes of their disease it has been determined that the majority tend to put into the first place stress/anxiety while the second position is occupied by food and bad eating habits, smoking, and heredity. Overwork and ageing as the causes of disease more frequently have occupied the third place.
