Abstract
The purpose ofthis survey is to study the needfor information
among coronary heart disease patients, how the information
is given and if it is effective.
The sample is 87 individuals, age35 -37, who had a myo-
cardial infarct between January lstandOctober lst, 1992 and
who were dischargedfrom the cardiac units of two hospitals in
Reykjavik, lceland. Questionnaires were sent by mail to the
individuals in the sample and responses were obtained from
66%.
The results show that more than half of those who answered
wanted more information than theyperceived that they had been
given. Most of them found they were given information on
individual basis and98% stated the information wasgiven in
simple and clear language. The majority wanted information
to be as diverse as possible. The patients said they received most
information from physicians and nurses. 89% ofthe individuals
said they changed their lifestyles after being discharged from
the cardiac unit.
