Abstract

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to identify the factors related to coronary artery disease in Korean adults.
METHODS
This study analyzed cross-sectional data collected from 11,103 Korean adults aged 40 years and older who participated in Korean National Health and Nutrition Survey VI (2013~2015). Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, Rao-Scott χ² test and logistic regression with IBM SPSS v.23. Logistic regression examined whether variables in 3 domains - socio-demographic, lifestyle and health related factors were associated with coronary artery disease.
RESULTS
The prevalence of coronary artery disease was 3.16% of the population. Coronary artery disease was associated with older age, spouse, smoking, stress, obesity, poorer self reported health, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus.
CONCLUSION
This study suggested that comprehensive nursing intervention should include associated variables in order to reduce the prevalence of coronary artery disease.
