Awareness of Heart Disease Among Female College Students
This cross-sectional study assessed the knowledge of female students about heart disease (HD). A sample of 334 students (age=18-64 years) completed a 43-item survey. Students (32%) considered themselves “not informed” about HD. Yet, HD was identified as a main health problem (30.5%) and a leading cause of death (60%; p < .05). Students with private health insurance (54%) visited the doctor regularly versus those without private or known type of insurance (6.4% and 2.1%, respectively; p < .05). Students identified exercise (73.8%) and aromatherapy (14.1%) as preventive methods for HD. To increase HD awareness among female students, educational opportunities should be incorporated into coursework.
