Currently there are 209.8 deaths from heart, stroke and vascular diseases per 100 000 of the Australian female population each year, with the rates being considerably high in the elderly female population. Despite the potential benefits of behavioural strategies to prevent morbidity in women with chronic disease, studies to date have not targeted women who already have a chronic disease in a clinical setting. This research study will address this, helping postmenopausal women who have chronic disease change negative health behaviours and increase physical activity and self efficacy, improve quality of life and decrease blood pressure, obesity and tobacco use.

目前，每年每100 000名澳大利亚女性人口中有209.8人死于心脏病、中风和血管疾病，老年女性人口中的死亡率相当高。尽管行为策略对预防慢性病妇女发病具有潜在益处，但迄今为止的研究尚未针对临床环境中已患有慢性病的妇女。这项研究将解决这个问题，帮助患有慢性疾病的绝经后妇女改变消极的健康行为，增加身体活动和自我效能，提高生活质量，降低血压，肥胖和烟草使用。
