Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Health promoting schools (HPS) prioritize the health of students and community. One important target of HPS is noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), including prevention of heart attacks, due to their burden on healthcare.
UNASSIGNED: This study assesses the effectiveness of an educational intervention to promote knowledge of signs and symptoms, beliefs and attitudes towards heart attack, and promote knowledge of Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
UNASSIGNED: The intervention consisted of a 6-minute educational video between a pre-and post-survey. Among other questions, the survey included the Calgary Charter on Health literacy scale, the acute coronary syndrome response index questionnaire, and items assessing knowledge of CPR.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 401 high school students participated (58.9% females). Few students had adequate baseline knowledge of heart attack symptoms (22%) and CPR (7%). The sample showed moderate level of health literacy (12 ± 2.7). Chest pain was the most identified symptom (95%) while abdominal pain was the least identified (14.25%). The intervention significantly increased knowledge, beliefs and attitudes towards heart attack, and knowledge of CPR (p < 0.001). Following the intervention, 83.2% of students demonstrated sufficient knowledge of heart attack symptoms, and 45% exhibited adequate knowledge of CPR. Variables predictive of better attitude, in other words higher confidence in recognizing and reacting to symptoms of heart attack, included having higher health literacy and prior knowledge of risk factors (p < 0.05). Needing help reading medical instructions sometimes predicted worse belief in their capacity to act if they experienced or witnessed a heart attack [score (p < 0.05)]. It was also predictive of worse attitude towards heart attack (OR = 0.18).
UNASSIGNED: High school students in Lebanon lack appropriate knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs toward heart attack, and lack CPR qualifications. Scale up of this educational initiative, along with training of teachers and school personnel, can be used as part of a holistic HPS program aimed at raising awareness of heart attack and first responder preparedness.

摘要：
■健康促进学校（HPS）优先考虑学生和社区的健康。HPS的一个重要目标是非传染性疾病(NCDs)，包括预防心脏病,由于他们在医疗保健方面的负担。
■这项研究评估了教育干预的有效性，以促进对体征和症状的了解，对心脏病发作的信念和态度，提高心肺复苏（CPR）的知识。
■干预包括前后调查之间的6分钟教育视频。在其他问题中，调查包括《卡尔加里宪章》健康素养量表，急性冠脉综合征反应指数问卷,和项目评估CPR知识。
■共有401名高中生参加（58.9％为女性）。很少有学生对心脏病发作症状（22％）和CPR（7％）有足够的基线知识。样本显示中等健康素养水平(12±2.7)。胸痛是最明确的症状（95％），而腹痛是最不明确的症状（14.25％）。干预显着增加了知识，对心脏病发作的信念和态度，和CPR知识（p<0.001）。干预之后,83.2%的学生对心脏病发作症状表现出足够的认识，和45％表现出足够的CPR知识。预测更好态度的变量，换句话说，对心脏病发作症状的识别和反应的信心更高，包括具有较高的健康素养和对危险因素的先验知识（p<0.05）。如果他们经历或目睹心脏病发作，需要帮助阅读医疗说明有时会预测他们的行动能力会更糟[评分（p<0.05）]。它还可以预测对心脏病发作的态度较差（OR=0.18）。
■黎巴嫩的高中生缺乏适当的知识，态度，以及对心脏病发作的信念，缺乏CPR资格。扩大这项教育计划，随着教师和学校人员的培训，可作为整体HPS计划的一部分，旨在提高人们对心脏病发作和急救准备的认识。
