Randomized Clinical Trial by Conglomerates on the Efficacy of Maintenance of Physical Exercise in Myocardial Ischemia
- Conditions
- Physical ExerciseMyocardial Ischemia
- Interventions
- Other: Maintenance of physical exercise
- Registration Number
- NCT04251611
- Lead Sponsor
- Núria Santaularia Capdevila
- Brief Summary
Main objective: To assess the efficacy of a phase III cardiac rehabilitation program (CRP), based on counseling in the maintenance of physical exercise (time of physical exercise per week) for patients with myocardial ischemia (MI), once the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of CRP is completed.
Secondary objectives: To assess the efficacy of a phase III program of CRP based on counseling in the maintenance of physical exercise for the patient with MI in: 1) the energy expenditure per week, 2) body mass index and abdominal perimeter, 3) control of cardiovascular risk factors (smoking, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus), 4) quality of life related to health, 5) assess the adherence to cardiac pharmacological treatment.
Method: Randomized clinical trial in conglomerates, open and controlled. The intervention group will carry out phase III of CRP based on counseling in the maintenance of physical exercise. The control group will receive the usual care. The main outcome will be the physical exercise time per week after finish the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of CRP and at 6 and 12 month later according to the 7-day Physical Activity Recall.

Group Intervention Description Intervention group Maintenance of physical exercise Patient will go to health center to visit the cardiac rehabilitation (CR) reference team, which is composed for a doctor and a nurse. This team will establish the guideline of action in the maintenance and/or increase in the physical exercise practice, in function of the resources of each zone and the preferences and motivations of the patient. They also reinforce the control of CVRF and the maintenance of a long-term cardio-healthy lifestyle. At the end of the visit, control visit will be given with the CR reference team at 3, 6 and 12 months after completing the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP. In case of detecting specific needs for the patient and/or relapses, the team will consult with the appropriate professional (cardiologist, cardiology nurse, physiotherapist, rehabilitator, nutritionist and/or psychologist). At the same time, the patient will be informed of the possibility of re-evaluating the CR reference team.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The physical exercise minutes performed by the patient per week At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. The physical exercise minutes performed by the patient per week will be recorded through the 7-day Physical Activity Recall (PAR) questionnaire.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The abdominal circumference At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Abdominal circumference is the measurement of the abdomen of the patient at the level of the navel. It will be recorded in centimeters using a tape measure.
Basal plasma glucose At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Physiological parameter
The quality of life related to health. At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Level of perception of the patient regarding their state of health. It will be measured through the EuroQol-5D test.
The body mass index (BMI) At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. BMI is the quotient between the weight (kg) and the square of the height (m). It is usually used for the definition of underweight (BMI \<15.99), normal weight (BMI 18.5 to 24.99), overweight (BMI ≥ 25 kg / m2) and obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg / m2).
The control of smoking At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Smoking:The degree of dependence on tobacco consumption will be recorded through the Fargeström test.
Diastolic blood pressure At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Physiological parameter
Total cholesterol At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Physiological parameter
The energy expenditure by the patient per week At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. The energy expenditure by the patient per week will be recorded through the 7-day Physical Activity Recall (PAR) questionnaire.
Systolic blood pressure At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Physiological parameter
High-density lipoproteins cholesterol At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Physiological parameter
Low-density lipoproteins cholesterol At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Physiological parameter
Triglycerides At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. Physiological parameter
Assess the adherence to cardiovascular medication. At 12 months of the supervised physical exercise program of phase II of the CRP has been completed. It will be recorded if the patient is successfully taking the cardiovascular medication through the Haynes-Sackett test.
