Summary

Interventions that can improve cardiovascular health behaviors in children are of critical importance for reducing the burden of cardiovascular disease in the future. The research will be conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing interventions aimed at improving heart health in children. The study employs a pre-test post-test control group experimental design. The sample of the study consists of a total of 100 students, with 50 in the experimental group and 50 in the control group. The research will be conducted with students from two middle schools selected through simple random sampling method from Mamak district, Ankara province. Socio-demographic Data Collection Form and Cardiovascular Health Behavior Scale for Children will be used during the data collection process. A 5-week educational plan aimed at improving cardiovascular health behaviors will be implemented for the experimental group, while no intervention will be made for the control group. Research data will be analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 25.0 program. Continuous variables will be reported using mean (x̅) and standard deviation (SD), while number (n) and percentage (%) will be used for categorical variables. All tests will consider statistical significance at the level of p \< 0.05. For the study to be conducted, ethical approval will be obtained from the Ankara University Rectorate Ethics Committee, institutional permission will be obtained from the Ankara Provincial Directorate of National Education, and verbal consent from the included students and written consent from their parents will be obtained.
