Clinical Trial Summary

This randomised study evaluates the efficacy of health education and therapeutic group factors on cardiac rehabilitation and quality of life in coronary patients attending cardiac rehabilitation programmes in Extremadura.


Clinical Trial Description

Cardiac rehabilitation has been shown to be effective in improving the quality of life of patients who have suffered a cardiovascular event, as well as in preventing future cardiovascular events, demonstrating an increase in survival of between 20% and 30%, with a Class IA recommendation. Due to the prevalence of cardiovascular disease, both nationally and globally, it is important to study the benefits of these cardiac rehabilitation programmes in order to encourage their use. However, several studies have shown that for the programme to be effective, 5% to 10% weight loss must be achieved in patients, adequate nutritional education must be implemented, and behavioural and psychological intervention programmes must be incorporated in order to have an impact on adherence, psychological well-being, and coping with exercise intolerance. This project aims to study the effectiveness of health education and therapeutic group factors in cardiac rehabilitation and on quality of life in coronary patients in Cardiac Rehabilitation Units in Extremadura, including in the analysis anthropometric and body composition, nutritional, cognitive, emotional and lifestyle factors, which could act as mediators of cardiac function, reactivity to neuro-cardiovascular stress, anxiety, depression, anger-hostility, rehospitalisation, adherence, and adherence to treatment. ;
