Description

Introduction: Patients with coronary heart disease who engage in low physical activity are at an increased risk of
morbidity and mortality. Self-efficacy, a key determinant of physical activity adherence, may hinder or enable
engagement in exercise, particularly in patients with low self-efficacy. This study aimed to determine the association
of physical activity and self-efficacy in patients with coronary heart disease.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among outpatients of coronary heart disease at a cardiovascular
center. A total of 238 coronary heart disease patients were included in the study using a purposive sampling
technique. The self-efficacy was measured using the cardiac self-efficacy scales (CSE), and the physical activity was
measured using the long form International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Data analysis used the Chi-square
test, Spearman correlation test and multivariate linear regression.
Results: Self-efficacy was strongly positively correlated with physical activity in coronary heart disease patients (r =
0.956; p = 0.001). Domain-specific correlations included domestic (r=0.419, p<0.001), work (r=0.383, p<0.001), leisure
time (r=0.296, p<0.001), and transport (r=0.247, p<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that
employment status had the most significant negative impact on physical activity (B = -246.477), while age (B = 123.
889) and self-efficacy (B = 93.513) were positively associated with physical activity. These results indicate that higher
self-efficacy and older age are linked to increased physical activity, whereas employment status is associated with
decreased physical activity.
