Background In cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation, care activities are carried out by different professionals in coordination, each with their own specific competence. This GICR–IACPR position paper has analysed the interventions performed nurse, physiotherapist, dietician psychologist order to identify what constitutes minimal care, it lists that fundamental indispensable for team member perform clinical practice. Results analysing type of intervention, following dimensions were...
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is the subspecialty of clinical cardiology dedicated to treatment cardiac patients, early and in long term after an acute event. The aim CR improve both quality life prognosis through prognostic stratification, stabilization optimization therapy (pharmacological non), management comorbidities, disability, as well provision reinforcement secondary prevention interventions maintenaince adherence treatment. mission has changed over time. Once centered on phase, aimed...
Chronic heart failure (CHF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are two clinical conditions often associated with functional worsening, cognitive dysfunctions, treatment non-adherence, psychological distress poor quality of life (QoL). In addition, since patients suffering from these older adults, the presence frailty syndrome could worsen situation.
The HHH (home or hospital in heart failure) study is a European Community multicenter trial aimed at assessing population of chronic failure patients 3 incremental home telemonitoring strategies against usual clinical practice. End points are rehospitalization, quality life, mortality and cost-efficacy. Easy accessibility by the patient low management costs two basic criteria that have guided design architecture system. Voice messages, vital signs long-term cardiorespiratory data...
Rehabilitative and preventive cardiology (CRP) is configured as intervention prevention to “gain health” through a process of multifactorial care that reduces disability the risk subsequent cardiovascular events. It makes use an interdisciplinary team in which every professional needs have multiple paths because different levels clinical functional complexity cardiac patients who currently access rehabilitation. The document refers interventions by nurses, physiotherapists, dietitians...
In Cardiovascular Rehabilitation the increasing inpatients complexity suggests necessity to develop screening methods which allow identify those patients that require a psychological intervention. Material and methods: A Psycho-Cardiological Schedule (PCS) was developed with aim of detecting critical situation indicators or presence psychological, social cognitive problems. The PCS, compiled by nurse cardiologist in collaboration psychologist, allows assess need for deeper examination,...
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) represents a cardiology subspecialty that is devoted to the care of cardiac patients, early and long term after an acute event. CR aims at improving both quality life prognosis through risk prognostic stratification, clinical stabilization optimization therapy, management comorbidities, treatment disability, provision sustained long-term preventive rehabilitative services.The mission has changed over time. From being centred on phase, health patients increasingly...
The Psychosocial Cardiological Schedule (PCS) was developed as a screening tool for patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation (CR) to detect clinically relevant psychosocial/cognitive problems requiring psychological assessment/intervention. Filled out by trained nurse, it classifies according their need or not interview and intervention provided the psychologist (PCS-Yes vs. PCS-No).The main aim compare PCS data collected, respectively, in 2010 2017, regarding patients' socio-demographic...

Background : il lavoro si inserisce in un progetto di ricerca finalizzata multicentrica che prende spunto dalla considerazione che, mentre esistono strumenti atti a valutare l’appropriatezza dei ricoveri nelle patologie acute, per quanto riguarda la riabilitazione sono disponibili solo scale standardizzate misura dell’autonomia del paziente non sempre grado le modificazioni indotte dagli interventi sanitari/assistenziali. Obiettivo generale: definire l’ appropriatezza, nel ricovero...
