Abstract Aims Improved dietary habits are important for successful secondary prevention after myocardial infarction (MI), with counselling and support on healthy constituting a cornerstone of cardiac rehabilitation (CR). However, there is limited knowledge how to optimize CR organization motivate patients adopt habits. We aimed explore associations between programme structure, processes, self-reported 1 year post-MI. Methods results Organizational data from 73 Swedish centres patient-level...
While patient performance after participating in cardiac rehabilitation programmes acute myocardial infarction is regularly reported through registry and survey data, information on programme characteristics less well described.The aim of this study was to evaluate Swedish adherence European Guidelines Cardiovascular Disease Prevention.Cardiac at all 78 centres Sweden 2016 were surveyed using a web-based questionnaire (100% response rate). The questions based core components as recommended...
Abstract Aims The quality registry SWEDEHEART covers data across the patient pathway after an acute myocardial infarction (MI), from hospital care to secondary prevention. Although cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is strongly recommended MI, there still heterogeneity regarding standards, uptake, and adherence rates. aim of SWEDEHEART-CR provide continuous information on prevention CR performance support audit development evidence-based practice. To facilitate improvement research initiatives, a...
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects a brief dyadic cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) programme on health-related quality life (HRQoL), as well sense coherence in atrial fibrillation patients, up 12 months post fibrillation. Methods: A longitudinal randomised controlled trial with pre and 12-month post-test recruitment 163 persons their spouses, at county hospital southern Sweden. In all, 104 were randomly assigned either CBT ( n=56) or treatment usual (TAU) group...
BackgroundBenefits of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programme components on attaining risk factor targets post-myocardial infarction (MI) and their predictive strength relative to patient characteristics remain unclear. We aimed identify organizational patient-level predictors target attainment at one-year post-MI.MethodsIn this observational study data CR organization 78 Swedish centres was collected merged with registry (n = 7549). Orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis...
Nurses constitute a central profession in the cardiac rehabilitation (CR) team delivering comprehensive CR to individuals with cardiovascular disease. We aimed identify specific components reflecting nurses' role associated attainment of risk factor targets post myocardial infarction.
Abstract We compared the odds of smoking cessation at 2-months post-myocardial infarction (MI), before and after implementing routines optimizing use evidence-based methods, with start during admission. The following were implemented six Swedish hospitals: cardiac rehabilitation nurses offering smokers consultation admission, nicotine replacement therapy varenicline prescription, contacting patients by telephone 1st week post-discharge. Using logistic regression, for (n smokers/n admitted =...
Background: Primary microvascular angina (PMA) is a common condition associated with quality of life (QoL) and physical capacity (PC) deterioration, allied to frequent recurrence.PMA recognized as in which pharmacological interventions yield poor results the control ischemia symptoms.Purpose: We aimed at evaluating impact training (PT) over PC, QoL, extent reversible myocardial perfusion defects (rMPD) patients PMA.Methods: prospectively investigated 32 PMA, characterized by effort angina,...

Abstract Background For smokers who suffer a myocardial infarction (MI), smoking cessation is the most effective measure to reduce recurrent event risk. Still, evidence-based treatment methods for aiding post-MI are underused. Purpose To compare odds of at two-months before and after implementing set pre-specified routines optimization cessation, with start during admission. Methods Structured early counselling were implemented six cardiac rehabilitation (CR) centres in Sweden. The included...
Abstract Background The benefits of specific cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programme components on patient outcomes after myocardial infarction (MI) remain unclear, as does their relative predictive strength compared to patient-level predictors. Purpose To identify CR organizational and predictors for reaching risk factor targets at one-year post-MI. Methods This was an observational survey- registry-based study. Data organization all 78 centres in Sweden collected 2016 merged with individual...
Abstract Background: Evidence-based methods for aiding smoking cessation post-myocardial infarction are effective yet underused in clinical practice. We compared the odds of at 2-months before versus after implementing a set pre-specified routines optimizing evidence-based treatment cessation, initiated during admission. Methods: Structured early counselling and optimization were implemented six cardiac rehabilitation centres Sweden. The included nurses providing current smokers hospitalized...
Abstract We compared the odds of smoking cessation at 2-months post-myocardial infarction (MI) before and after implementing routines, optimizing use evidence-based methods for cessation, with start during admission. The following routines were implemented six hospitals in Sweden: cardiac rehabilitation nurses offering smokers short consultation admission, nicotine replacement therapy, increasing prescription varenicline, contacting patients by telephone 1st week post-discharge.
