Aloei Saboe General Hospital, Gorontalo City.. Methods: The research method used a cross-sectional design with a quantitative research type. The population in the study consisted of all 392 outpatients with congestive heart failure. The sample was taken using the Purposive Sampling method, with a total of 80 samples. The research instrument used was a questionnaire. Results: The study results found a relationship between the level of knowledge and illness perception in patients with congestive heart failure. The statistical test results using the Chi-Square test showed a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05). Conclusion: Respondents with a good level of knowledge predominantly exhibited a positive illness perception. This study can contribute to improving knowledge about congestive heart failure.
