Registration Number
NCT04732923
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier de Cholet
Brief Summary

Maintaining physical activity post-cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has a major role in disease progression and patient prognosis, especially given its potential impact on physical condition. Unfortunately, during a nursing interview carried out 6 months after the CR at the Center Hospitalier de Cholet, we find that 40% do not maintain regular physical activity. This observation is in line with the literature since it emerges respectively at 2 months and 1 year post-CR that between 47% and 59% of patients do not comply with the recommendations in terms of physical activity (Guiraud et al, 2012).

However, data suggest that during the post-CR follow-up phase at 6 months, there could be a maintenance of the physical condition assessed via the distance at the 6-minutes walk test (Pavy et al, 2012; Racodon et al, 2019). There is a lack of data on the maintenance of physical condition beyond 6 months since no study has evaluated the maintenance of physical condition at 1 year post-CR by 6-minutes walk test.

Detailed Description

The objective of this study is to examine the maintenance of physical condition at one year after cardiac rehabilitation program by the 6-minutes walk test.
