Clinical Trial Summary

A prospective longitudinal and observational clinical study will be conducted with hospitalized heart failure patients.The main purpose is to know the level of physical activity of these patients after their discharge in relation to the orientation received during their hospitalization and identify the barriers perceived by these patients to participate in a cardiac rehabilitation program. The outcomes are available by telephone calls in 30 and 90 days after discharge.


Description:

Heart failure is a progression epidemic problem, parallel to population aging. The costs of this disease are estimates in 38 billion of dollars per year, many of those have a relationship to high number of hospitalizations and decompensated heart failure. Non-adherence to drug treatment and non-pharmacological measures as cardiac rehabilitation are the major causes of high number of mortality and hospitalizations by heart failure. Our objectives will be to identify in decompensated heart failure inpatients the level of physical activity that they done before hospitalization, the barriers for the non-use of cardiac rehabilitation and their disposition to changes of lifestyle. Correlation between level of physical activity and readmission in 30 and 90 days after hospital discharge will be done. To understand the profile of these patients and difficulties for to do physical exercise could help to make future actions with focus in to obtain high adherence to changes in lifestyle.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Know the physical activity level in heart failure patients before hospitalization - To know the physical activity level in heart failure patients before the hospitalization using one questionnaire: the International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ). Before hospitalization
Primary Know cardiac rehabilitation barriers in heart failure patients -To identify the cardiac rehabilitation barriers in heart failure patients using a likert scale CRBS (Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale) which assesses patients' perceptions regarding the personal (patient), professional (health professional) and institutional (system) barriers that affect participation and adherence to cardiac rehabilitation programs. At screening
Primary Know disposition for changes in life habits - To identify the disposition for changes in life habits related to physical activity using the Disposition Scale described for Prochaska Jo and Diclemente with the results: pre contemplation, contemplation, preparation and action. At screening
Secondary Know the change from baseline physical activity level to 30 days after discharge To know the physical activity level in heart failure patients 30 days after discharge using one questionnaire: the International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ). 30 days
Secondary Know the change from baseline physical activity level to 90 days after discharge To know the physical activity level in heart failure patients 90 days after discharge using one questionnaire: the International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ). 90 days
Secondary Adhesion of orientation Verify the adhesion of the orientation given in the hospitalization about medications and daily weight measure 90 days
Secondary New hospitalizations 30 and 90 days after discharge Verify if there were new hospitalizations and its reasons in this period 30 and 90 days
Secondary Correlate new hospitalization with physical activity and orientations Correlate the new hospitalization in 30 and 90 days after discharge with the participation in physical activity program and orientation given in the hospital (medications and daily weight measure) in the statistical analysis 90 days
Secondary Measure anxiety and depression Measure anxiety and depression through HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) which shows if it is impossible, possible or probable. At screening
Secondary Measure cognitive impairment Measure if the patient presents cognitive impairment applying the MMSE (Mini-mental State Examination). At screening
Secondary Correlate anxiety and depression with cognitive impairment Correlate anxiety and depression with cognitive impairment in the statistical analysis At screening
