Many risk factors are involved in cardiovascular diseases including hypertension, high cholesterol, overweight and obesity, smoking, diabetes, inadequate physical activity, unhealthy diet. The aim of this study was to evaluate cardiovascular diseases risk factors and the relationship between knowledge level and preventive behaviors for cardiovascular diseases among women in Kerman. Methods: This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was performed on 400 women in Kerman. Participants were selected using multistage cluster sampling method. Data were collected using demographic questionnaire and a questionnaire about cardiovascular disease risk factors, knowledge, nutritional behavior, and physical activity. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation, Spearman, one-way ANOVA, Kruskal wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test by SPSS 21. Results: The average age of women was 42.11±1.40 years. Daily stress (71.75%) and inadequate physical activity (62.75%) were the most common risk factors among the participants. There was a significant positive relationship between knowledge and nutritional behavior (P<0.0001) and physical activity (P=0.001).

Promoting the sense of coherence and capability of mothers to adapt and manage the problems of children with chronic disease and their family seems necessary. Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was performed on 300 women (150 mothers with healthy children and 150 mothers of children with chronic disease). Convenience sampling was used for mothers of children with chronic disease, and random sampling for mothers of healthy children. Data were collected using the valid and reliable Antonovsky's sense of coherence scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (the frequency, mean, standard deviation) and analytic statistics (Pearson’s correlation coefficient and Mann-Whitney U test) by SPSS 18. Results: There was a significant difference in the total score of mothers’ sense of coherence between the groups. There was also a significant difference in the three components of mothers’ sense of coherence (comprehensibility, manageability, and meaningfulness), so that mothers with healthy children had higher scores in all cases (P=0.0001). Conclusion: It seems that a comprehensive program of empowerment that promotes the mothers’ sense of coherence, can be very effective in reducing the problems of compatibility, management, and care of mothers of children with chronic disease, and subsequently, promotes the Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in family members.

Data were statistically analyzed using paired t-test by SPSS 19. Results: The average number of surgical procedures performed in all wards of the teaching hospital was increased after implementation of the health care reform plan. There was also statistically significant difference between all the inpatient surgeries and all the scheduled and unscheduled ones (P<0.05).   Conclusion: Health care reform plan had a significant effect on supply and demands for services in the teaching hospital that can be due to financing through the plan that increased the demand for surgical service delivery.
