Educational and organizational interventions used to improve the knowledge of metabolic syndrome among postmenopausal women
Abstract:
A total of 105 postmenopausal women previously diagnosed with metabolic syndrome consented to take part in this educational program. After receiving the training, women significantly improved their knowledge regarding menopause and related issues, and, since the program increased their awareness of menopause and related risks, we propose that these cost-effective measures could eventually reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality among high-risk populations. © 2008 American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
