Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine how patients' educational attainment in Anambra State relates to their adherence to activity and nutrition regimens for congestive heart failure. Using a non-experimental description design, the investigation was conducted. The study's target population consists of patients or clients with congestive heart failure who were registered and receiving medical care in Anambra State's tertiary health institutions between the ages of 58 and 65, as well as healthcare professionals such as physicians, nurses, and midwives, as well as patient relatives.regarding procedure and sampling,

The study's sample is taken from Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital in Awka, Anambra State, because the COVID-19 pandemic caused limitations on travel and movement. The hospital chosen is Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, which doubles as a research center.This study used interview techniques and a multiple-choice questionnaire as its tool for gathering data. These techniques are employed in order to gather the required data. The administered questionnaire comprised five research questions, twenty questions, and the respondents' personal information. To obtain the required information, the researcher kept up a positive rapport. Interviews were conducted with interviewers as well.

 To get at a conclusion, a hypothesis was created and put to the test utilizing chi-square in the analysis sample % average, and questionnaires were sent out. After the data was analyzed, it was discovered that patients in Anambra State who had congestive heart failure also had higher levels of education and adhered to strict dietary and exercise regimens. A random sample of 300 respondents was chosen for the study, and interviews were also held. As a result, the study suggests providing these individuals with ongoing health education regarding the research designs.
