Purpose: This study was to evaluate the knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation and the educational need of CAD patients and to provide basic data for developing the educational programs.
Method: The subjects were 115 CAD patients aged between 30 and 75 who were hospitalized or in outpatient settings. The data were collected from Nov. 1, to Dec. 2, 2005 using a survey technique. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and scheff test and Pearson’s correlation with SPSS program.
Results: The highest score of cardiac rehabilitation knowledge was ’diet’ and the lowest score was ’drugs’.

The score of cardiac rehabilitation knowledge was significantly different with education, economic status and occupation. The subjects’ educational need was significantly different with having family history, regular exercise, the duration of a disease, the frequency of hospitalization, age and information. There was to be no correlation between the knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation and educational needs.
