| Abstrakt: | Background: Patients with coronary heart diseases need knowledge about the risk factors of the disease to manage their illness. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between knowledge about coronary heart diseases risk factors and health-promoting lifestyle in adults living in Tabriz City. Methods: This descriptive correlational study was conducted on 346 adults older than 18 years old that were selected by convenience sampling method from public places in Tabriz. The study data were collected by a demographic characteristics form, Heart Disease Fact Questionnaire (HDFQ) and Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile (HPLP) and analyzed by analysis of variance, Independent t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis using SPSS-PC v. 22. Results: The results showed that the knowledge of 57.51% of the participants was good. The mean±SD score of health promoting lifestyle was 136.30±21.15 (in moderate level). Spiritual growth dimension (M= 26.8) and exercise and physical activity dimension (M= 16.54) had the highest and lowest mean scores, respectively. The results also showed that there is a significant relationship between knowledge of coronary heart diseases risk factors and health promoting lifestyle (p <0.001). There was a significant relationship between the knowledge of coronary heart disease risk factors with age, marital status, occupational status, economic status, history of diabetes and lipid profile (p <0.05); but health promoting lifestyle was only associated with history of diabetes (p = 0.03). Conclusion: According to the findings, performing educational interventions at different levels of prevention could increase the knowledge of these patients about the risk factors of coronary heart disease and hopefully in promoting their lifestyle.
