They were interviewed with a structured questionnaire. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson’s correlation analysis.
Results: In inpatients with coronary artery disease in China, the score of knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation was average (), and the score of educational needs was high (). The score of self care was average (). The regular exercise group (p= .005) had a high knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation, the nonsmoking group (p= .022) and regular exercise group (p= .037) did well by themselves. Educational needs also affected the overall knowledge of inpatients with coronary artery disease (r= .288, p= .003).
