BACKGROUND: Adopting healthy behaviors can lead to better outcomes which can deeply impactcardiovascular diseases (CVDs) development; consequently, tailoring appropriate theory‑basedinterventions may improve various outcomes among patients at CV risks. This study aimed to assesspublished researches on the application of health education and promotion of intrapersonal andinterpersonal theories/models’ interventions on patients with CVD.MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this systematic review, PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar,Scopus, Science Direct, and SID, Magiran databases for English and Persian studies were searchedusing relevant keywords, respectively. We searched for interventional studies published with no timelimits until the end of 2020 assessing the application of health education and promotion theories/modelsinterventions on adult patients with CVDs. Two reviewers individually reviewed abstracts/full‑textarticles to assess inclusion according to predefined criteria. In case of discrepancy between the tworesearchers, a third expert was requested to assess papers, and final selection decision was madebased on the agreement among the three evaluators. This systematic review was conducted usingthe following data extraction steps and assessing the quality of the studies and results.RESULTS: From 60 articles, 35 studies met inclusion criteria. Most interventions improved at leastsome educational including models constructs (20%), clinical (14.2%), and practical (88.5%) outcomerelated to CVDs. It is noted that attention to educational, practical, and clinical outcomes was focusedin published papers, respectively. Furthermore, based on the study categorization using models,some CVDs and theories/models were more concerned compared to others.CONCLUSIONS: Health education and promotion theory‑based interventions on patients with CVDappeared beneficial in the most published paper.
