Abstract

        This predictive correlational study aimed at studying influence of perceived susceptibility of coronary heart disease, perceived health status, knowledge about coronary heart disease and patient-provider communication on preventive behaviors for coronary heart disease among patients with hypertension. The samples were 126 patients with hypertension who came to be treated at a public hospital in Bangkok. Data were collected using the following instruments: the demographic data questionnaire, the perceived susceptibility of coronary heart disease questionnaire, the perceived health status questionnaire, the knowledge about coronary heart disease questionnaire, the patient-provider communication questionnaire and the questionnaire on preventive behaviours for coronary heart disease among patients with hypertension. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis.

        According to the findings, most of the samples had high preventive behaviours for coronary heart disease. According to multiple regression analysis, all of the independent variables were able to explain variances of preventive behaviours for coronary heart disease among the samples at 11 percent with statistical significance (Adjusted R2 = .11, p < .01). Only perceived health status (β = .23, p = .01), knowledge about coronary heart disease (β = .17, p = .04) and patient-provider communication (β = .17, p = .04) were found to be able to predict preventive behaviours for coronary heart disease among patients with hypertension with statistical significance.

         Recommended from the findings, health personnel should assess and monitor patients’ perceived health status, provide knowledge about coronary heart disease and develop effective patient-provider communication in order to promote preventive behaviours for coronary heart disease among patients with hypertension.
