Turkish nursing students have a high level of knowledge about cardiovascular disease risk factors, but significant gaps exist regarding its status as the primary cause of mortality.
Badır et al. (2014) conducted a cross-sectional in Cardiovascular disease knowledge (n=1,138). Student characteristics (years of education, gender, high school type) was evaluated on Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors Knowledge Level (CARRF-KL) score (p=<0.001). Years of education (p < 0.001), gender (p < 0.001), and high school type (p < 0.05) were significantly associated with cardiovascular disease knowledge scores among nursing students.
