1 Cross-sectional cardiac rehabilitation with a Nurse Case Manager (GoHeart) improves risk factors, self-care and psychosocial outcomes. A 1-year follow-up study. Vibeke Brogaard Hansen 1 and Helle Terkildsen Maindal 2 Department of Cardiology, Lillebaelt Hospital Vejle, Denmark 1. Health Promotion and Health Services, Department of Public Health 2, Aarhus University, Denmark PURPOSE In Denmark the local and regional health authorities share responsibility for cardiac rehabilitation (CR). The aim of this study was to assess effectiveness of CR across sectors coordinated by a Nurse Case Manager. Figure 1. Flow chart of the cardiac multidisciplinary rehabilitation program (GoHeart) METHODS The Danish single-centre rehabilitation programme (GoHeart) was evaluated in a cohort study in consecutive patients admitted to CR at Lillebaelt Hospital Vejle, DK from 2010 to 2011. The criteria for CR were the events of acute myocardial infarction or stabile angina leading to assessment of invasive revascularisation (LVEF ≥ 45%). The rehabilitation status was assessed at admission (phase IIa), at 3 months at discharge from hospital (phase IIb) and at 1-year follow-up (phase III). Outcomes were cardiac risk factors measured objectively and by self-report, stratified self-care status and self-reported psychosocial factors (SF-12 and HADS). Intention-to-treat and predefined subgroup analysis on sex were performed. * Improving handoff across interdisciplinary and sectors (Shared Care); 1) Combined treadmill exercise test/Borg 15 talk test with a nurse and physiotherapist at the hospital 2) A dietitian present at the educational course 3 3) A physiotherapist from the Municipal health center present at the final exercise training hour at the hospital 4) Telephone contact to the General Practitioner (GP) by the Nurse Care Manager if a high risk individual (Chronic Care Model) RESULTS 183 of 241 (75.9%) patients were included (mean age 63.8 years). At discharge improvements were found in total-cholesterol, LDL, functional capacities, self-care management, SF12 and in depression symptoms (Table 1). At 1-year follow-up these outcomes were maintained; in addition there was improvement in BMI and HDL (Table 1). Some variables deteriorated at 1 year; an increase in diastolic blood pressure (p < 0.001) and a decrease in SF12, pcs (P < 0.01). There were no sex differences. Correspondence : Vibeke Brogaard Hansen, md PhD. E-mail: vibeke.brogaard.hansen@rsyd.dk CONCLUSION CR shared between local and regional health authorities led by a NCM (GoHeart) improves risk factors, self-care and psychosocial factors. Further improvements in most variables were at one-year follow-up. No differences in sex were found suggesting that GoHeart may be the CR program to enhance women compliance which otherwise can be a challenge in cardiac rehabilitation.
