简要总结
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are still the most common cause of death. For these reasons, individuals, especially those with chronic diseases, need to be aware of CVD. CVD is also a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study aimed to compare CVD awareness in RA and knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
详细描述
Patients who apply to our Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic and are followed up with the diagnosis of RA and (KOA) will be screened. Demographic values such as age, gender, height, weight, smoking and alcohol use, diseases and medications used, cardiovascular disease awareness will be assessed with the Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors Knowledge Level (CARRF-KL), exercise levels with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), and nutritional habits with the Nutrition Attitude Scale (NAS). Cardiovascular risk calculation will be made with the Framingham Risk Score. It will also be ensured that patients with high risk are directed to the relevant branches. In addition, the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), which is a prognosis indicator for cardiovascular diseases, will be performed. All surveys will be filled out in both groups and compared in terms of cardiovascular risk awareness.

结局指标
主要结局
Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors Knowledge Level
时间窗: Day 1
This scale consists of 28 items. The first four items question the characteristics, protection and age factor of CVDs, 15 items question risk factors, and 9 items question the results of changes in risk behaviors. The items are answered as "Yes", "No" or "I don't know" and 1 point is given for each correct answer. The highest total score is 28. As the scores increase, the level of knowledge increases.
