Brief Summary

This long-term single-center cross-sectional study evaluates physicians' knowledge of influenza vaccination in CCS patients through collected feedback, while identifying knowledge gaps and misconceptions regarding vaccination. By analyzing factors influencing physicians' recommendation practices, it provides evidence to guide future educational and policy interventions. Ultimately, the study aims to enhance cardiologists' vaccination awareness, thereby optimizing CCS patient management and reducing influenza-associated complications and mortality.

Study Arms (4)

Chief Physician (Professor-level)

Responses from chief physicians (professor-level) across various regions, age groups, hospital types, and years of practice in China were collected via questionnaire survey. The study assessed their knowledge level regarding influenza vaccine application in CCS patients, investigated their perceptions on whether vaccination benefits patients' health outcomes, evaluated current vaccination implementation practices, and determined their support for influenza immunization.

Associate Chief Physician (Associate Professor-level)

Responses from Associate Chief Physician (Associate Professor-level) across various regions, age groups, hospital types, and years of practice in China were collected via questionnaire survey. The study assessed their knowledge level regarding influenza vaccine application in CCS patients, investigated their perceptions on whether vaccination benefits patients' health outcomes, evaluated current vaccination implementation practices, and determined their support for influenza immunization.

Attending Physician

Responses from Attending Physician across various regions, age groups, hospital types, and years of practice in China were collected via questionnaire survey. The study assessed their knowledge level regarding influenza vaccine application in CCS patients, investigated their perceptions on whether vaccination benefits patients' health outcomes, evaluated current vaccination implementation practices, and determined their support for influenza immunization.

Resident Physician

Responses from chief Resident Physician across various regions, age groups, hospital types, and years of practice in China were collected via questionnaire survey. The study assessed their knowledge level regarding influenza vaccine application in CCS patients, investigated their perceptions on whether vaccination benefits patients' health outcomes, evaluated current vaccination implementation practices, and determined their support for influenza immunization.
