This group has reduced the level<br>of hormone testosterone. Reported low DHEA and DHEA serum levels are at risk for coronary artery<br>disease. These groups also had at non-communicable diseases and Coronary artery disease was<br>associated with coronary artery disease per 71.0% and death 27.0% This analytical descriptive research<br>applied Health Belief Model as a conceptual framework in order to explore the coronary artery<br>disease preventive behaviors among men with andropause in Bangkok and its related f actors. The<br>participants were 315 men with andropause randomly selected from Prawet District, Metropolitan<br>Bangkok. Data were collected through structured interviews. Data analysis used descriptive statistics,<br>Pearson’s product moment correlation, and multiple regression analysis.<br>The results showed that most men with andropause have moderate level of coronary artery<br>disease preventive behaviors (73.7%). Factors that significantly related to coronary artery disease<br>preventive behaviors among men with andropause were self-efficacy toward coronary artery disease<br>prevention (beta =.553), perceived barriers of coronary artery disease prevention(beta = -.121 ),history<br>with chronic illness( beta = .114 ),and information consumption( beta = .093 ).These factors could be<br>accounted for 45.1%of variance in coronary artery disease preventive behaviors ( p < 0.001).<br>Research findings suggested that Community Nurse Practitioner or Health Personnel should<br>consider improving the coronary artery disease prevention behaviors among men with andropause.The<br>prevention program that provide information related to coronary artery disease, enhancing self-efficacy<br>toward prevention practice and reducing barrier perception should be organized and implemented<br>for men with andropause.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Journal of Public Health Nursing}, author={Chanpanit, Natthanan and Lagampan, Sunee and Pichayapinyo, Panan}, year={2019}, month={May}, pages={101–114} }
