Educational attainment is closely associated with health. The objective is to explore the extent to which children and adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD) are afforded the same educational and socialization opportunities as their healthy peers. We used a qualitative phenomenological design with convenience sampling. Data gathered 27…

Amanda Whittal; Isabell Ehringfeld; Paula Steinhoff; Oliver Rudolf Herber – Health Education & Behavior, 2024
There is a rising recognition of the crucial role self-care plays in managing heart failure (HF). Yet patients often have difficulties implementing ongoing self-care recommendations into their daily lives. There is also recognition of the importance of theory for successful intervention design, and understanding of key factors for implementation…

Kristen L. W. Walton – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
Views of obesity as a consequence of "lack of willpower" or other behavioral choices, rather than a complex array of biological and other factors, are quite common among undergraduate students. Many undergraduates in prenursing or biology programs have little exposure to the physiology and pathophysiology of obesity, including learning…

Gottfredson, Linda S. – Journal of Intelligence, 2021
The global epidemic of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, is creating unsustainable burdens on health systems worldwide. NCDs are treatable but not curable. They are less amenable to top-down prevention and control than are the infectious diseases now in retreat. NCDs are mostly preventable, but only…

Laura M. Penalo – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Through the use of virtual simulations (VS) in nursing education, nursing students are exposed to a variety of clinical scenarios that may potentially improve their learning of competencies, increase their self-efficacy, and enhance their future clinical performance. Despite limited quantitative research incorporating evidence-based strategies…

Izquierdo-Gomez, Rocio; Esteban-Cornejo, Irene; Cabanas-Sanchez, Veronica; Marcos, Ascensión; Gómez-Martínez, Sonia; Castro-Piñero, José; Veiga, Óscar L. – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2023
Introduction: The aims of this study were to examine cross-sectional, and longitudinal association of different measures of obesity and physical fitness with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in adolescents with Down syndrome. Methods: Longitudinal analysis included 90 adolescents with Down syndrome. Obesity and physical fitness were…

Tanja Plasil; Ellen Margrete Iveland Ersfjord; Kim Berge; Line M. Oldervoll – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2024
Background: Research suggests that people with intellectual disabilities have a higher risk for cardiovascular disease than the general population. The aim of this study was to identify barriers for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiovascular disease for people with intellectual disabilities. Method: We conducted individual…

Charissa N. Obeng-Nyarko; Penny A. Ralston; Kandauda K. A. S. Wickrama; Jennifer L. Lemacks; Jasminka Z. Ilich – Health Education & Behavior, 2024
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be the leading cause of death in the United States, with African Americans experiencing higher age-adjusted mortality compared to Whites. African American women in particular carry a high CVD burden due to more exposure to adverse personal and socioenvironmental challenges. Church-based interventions can…

Weterings, Stijn; Oppewal, Alyt; Hilgenkamp, Thessa I. M. – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2020
Background: The cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is high in adults with intellectual disabilities. This CVD risk can potentially be decreased with a resistance training (RT) programme at vigorous intensity, following previous research on successful High-Intensity Training programmes. Our aim was to explore the feasibility of a vigorous…

The high level of consumption of processed foods has an effect on human health. The consumption of doughnuts, pastries, fried chicken, French fried potatoes, snack chips, and imitation cheese is high among teenagers. These foods are generally rich in fats, although the focus has often been on the quantity rather than the quality of these fats.…

Lynggaard, V.; Zwisler, A. D.; Taylor, R. S.; May, O.; Nielsen, C. V. – Health Education Research, 2020
We assessed the effects of the patient education strategy 'Learning and Coping' (LC) in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) on mortality and readmissions by exploring results from the LC-REHAB trial. In all, 825 patients with ischaemic heart disease or heart failure were randomized to the intervention arm (LC-CR) or the control arm (standard CR) at three…

Leach, Heather J.; LeBreton, Kelli A.; Wurz, Amanda J.; Pergolotti, Mackenzi; Braun, Barry; Schuster, Steven R.; Green, Patrick – Health Education Journal, 2020
Objective: Exercise is beneficial for individuals who have been diagnosed with cardiovascular disease or cancer. Healthcare providers are well placed to discuss exercise with their patients, but their referral practices and the content of exercise recommendations remain unclear. Method: Cardiologists and oncologists completed an online survey…

Tewary, Sweta; Altaf, Rida; Pandya, Naushira; Luis, Melinda; Masri, Hady; Emmadi, Sravya – Educational Gerontology, 2021
The need for improved competency in the health care and caregiving workforce is shaped by several factors. These include demographic shifts, a shortage of trained geriatricians, lack of primary health-care providers with adequate training in geriatrics, and persisting unmet needs reflected by poor health status indicators of older Floridians.…

Chan, Rita Wai Yu; Kisa, Adnan – Health Education & Behavior, 2019
Background: Despite the strong link between health literacy and cardiovascular health outcomes, health literacy measurements remain flawed and fragmented. There exists a gap in the knowledge when formulating a valid measurement to capture the broad concept of health literacy. The existence of various tools for health literacy measurement also…

Xu, Dongjuan; Francis, Alexander L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the hypothesis that the relationship between hearing problems and cardiovascular disease (CVD) includes a connection to psychological distress. Design: We used generalized structural equation modeling to assess relationships between self-reported measures of hearing problems, psychological…
