Abstract: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding types of angina pectoris and its prevention among adults in selected cardiac hospital. A Quasi- experimental research design was considered to be most appropriate to fulfill the objectives of the study. Material and Methods: A pre- experimental one group pretest posttest research design was used in the study. Principle: 1) Age group 40-80yrs 2) Adults should be available during time of the study. Result: mean knowledge scores of pretest and posttest which reveals that majority of the adults 34 (56.67 %) had average knowledge and 90 % had average knowledge score respectively. Conclusion: The conclusion of the finding suggests lack of adequate knowledge of cardiac symptoms and high potential for inappropriate responses when symptoms occur.
