Predictors associated with an efficient health information management in patients with cardiac surgery.

Because of the number of increasing cardiac patients all over the world, the importance of cardiac disease prevention is increasing. This study was attempted to identify the predictors associated with an efficient health information patients in two general hospitals located in Seoul from May 13 to June 13, 2012. The results were as follows : First, analysis of the percentage of nutrient intake in terms of meal pattern showed that the response rate of 47.9% in the case group at vegetable intake of 2 or 3 times per week was significantly higher than the response rate of 47.1% in the control group(X<formula>^{2}</formula>=9.08, p< 0.05), Second, the multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that efficiency of a health information management was significantly associated with female(OR=3.24, 95% Cl: 1.93-6.84), the subjects having abdominal obesity(OR=2.29, 95% Cl: 1.15-3.60). Therefore, the proposed framework will be helpful for health information system developers.
