Based on Pender’s health promotion model, certain emotional behaviors such as perceived benefits and barriers have effect on changing health behaviors. Method. In a descriptive cross sectional study, 260 patients with cardiovascular disease were selected from exercise tolerant test ward of Shahriar social security hospital in 2009. In this study, sampling method was simple. Data were collected through interview. The instruments included demographic form, Benefits Assessment Scale and Barriers Assessment Scale. The data were analyzed by using SPSS software and descriptive statistics, T-test, ANOVA and Pearson coefficient correlation. Findings. The findings showed that mean score of perception of health promotion behaviors benefits was 41.14±3.82, and 83.7% of patients had high scores of perception about benefits of health promotion behaviors. There was statistically significant correlation of perception of benefits with education level (P=0.024) and job (P= 0.021). Mean score of perception of health promotion behaviors barriers was 26.81±6.31 and 66.3% of patients had moderate scores of perception about barriers of health promotion behaviors. Perception of barriers was significantly associated with gender (P=0.034) and marital status (P= 0.047).There was negative significant correlation between perception of benefits and perception of barriers (p=0.001). Conclusion. Regarding the results of this study, seems that increasing perception of patients with cardiovascular disease about benefits of health promotion behaviors is associated with decreased barriers of health promotion behaviors. Educational interventions by professional nurses for patients with cardiovascular disease may help the patients to adherence to health promotion behaviors.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim. This study aimed to determine barriers to patient education from the perspective of patients, nurses and doctors.
Background. Patient education is one of the indicators of quality of heath care services. Patient education could lead to a reduction in the cost of health care and increase the quality of care and ultimately, help the patient to become independent and self-sufficient.
Method. A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out. The research population included physicians, nurses and patients admitted to different wards of the Rajaee cardiovascular medical and research center. The sampling method was stratified random sampling for each population of the participants (patients, nurses and doctors). Data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire that measured the obstacles to patient education. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS software.
Findings. According to physicians, the most important barriers to education for patients was related to patients, and then related to physicians. From the viewpoint of nurses, the most important barriers to patient education were related to nurses. Patients evaluated themselves as the most important barrier to patient education, and then, the most important barriers were related to nurses from patients’ perspectives.
Conclusion. Regarding the importance of teaching to the patient, it is suggested that the managers take actions to increase the number of nursing staff, provide patients with educational brochures, allocate sufficient funds for patient education, supervise and encourage nurses and doctors, and prioritize training in daily tasks.
