Modalities And Safety Of Cardiac Rehabilitation In A Population Managed For Spontaneous Hematoma Or Coronary Disruption

Recruiting
Conditions
Cardiac Rehabilitation Program Following the Management of ACS in Patients Presenting With SCAD
Registration Number
NCT05744947
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Bordeaux
Brief Summary

Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) is a rare and often misdiagnosed cause of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) affecting predominantly young women without cardiovascular risk factors. There is no definitive evidence on the optimal management of SCAD, but the general approach is conservative.

Unlike established evidence-based rehabilitation programs for ACS and heart failure, no cardiac rehabilitation protocol exists for SCAD.

The aim of the study is to report and detail the cardiac rehabilitation program which was proposed to patients previously included in The Study of the Prevalence Fibromuscular Dysplasia in Patient With Haematoma or Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection. (DISCO trial - NCT02799186).

Detailed Description

The cardiac rehabilitation program was proposed to the patients presenting with SCAD in each interventional cardiology department, according physician's in charge of the patient decision.

The patient who has undergone a cardiac rehabilitation program following the ACS is included in a retrospective way. The patients are informed about this study by the investigator. After a reflection period, the patient is included.

Details regarding the entrance psychosocial evaluation, the entrance exercise treadmill test, the medications changes during rehabilitation, the training program modalities, the exit exercise treadmill test, and the left ventricular ejection fraction evolution (evaluated by echocardiography) were recorded. The safety for each cardiac rehabilitation program was also assessed.
