Abstract     There exist many data that show that heart and circulatory system diseases, including ishaemic heart disease, are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in our country and elsewhere. This is to a terrifying degree due to unfamiliarity with risk factors. The aim of the research study " Familiarity with risk factors" was to find out the extent of the knowledge of risk factors in patients and healthy clients, the degree to which these risk factors are taken into account in everyday life and the possible ways to enhance the knowledge about them. It was found out that not enough patient and healthy clients are familiar with risk factors for ishaemic heart diseases, and therefore do not live their everyday lives according to them. Permanent health education of patients and healthy clients should be organized, and carried out by especially educated health personnel, with the professor of health education occupying the leading position.
Summary     Veliko podatkov kaže, da so bolezni srca in ožilja, kamor spada tudi ishemična bolezen srca, še vedno na prvem mestu po številu obolelih in umrlih pri nas in v svetu. Zaskrbljujoče je, koliko tega lahko pripišemo prav nepoznavanju dejavnikov tveganja za ishemično bolezen srca. Namen raziskave "Seznanjenost z dejavniki tveganja" je predvsem: ugotoviti kakšno je poznavanje dejavnikov tveganja pri bolnikih in zdravih varovancih, kako posamezne dejavnike tveganja upoštevajo v načinu življenja in na kakšen način bi radi dopolnili svoje znanje o dejavnikih tveganja. Še vedno veliko bolnikov in zdravih varovancev premalo pozna dejavnike tveganja za ishemične bolezni srca, kar pomeni, da jih v vsakdanjem življenju ne morejo upoštevati. Zato je zelo pomembno, da je za bolnike in zdrave varovance organizirana permanentna zdravstvena vzgoja. Zdravstveno vzgojo naj izvaja posebej za to usposobljeno zdravstveno osebje, med katerimi ima profesor zdravstvene vzgoje vodilno vlogo.
