About
Coronary heart disease, including acute coronary syndromes (ACS), is the leading cause of death in European countries. One of the basic elements of secondary and tertiary prevention of ACS is cardiac rehabilitation.
The aims of the study are evaluation of the impact of cardiac rehabilitation on health state- especially on cardiovascular function parameters in patients after acute coronary syndrome and evaluation of the influence of the level of gene expression and polymorphisms of genes associated with ischemic heart disease on the course of cardiac rehabilitation in patients after ACS.
The study will consist of a retrospective and prospective part. The retrospective part will include patients who have had acute coronary syndrome in the past and then - before being included in the study - have undergone cardiac rehabilitation. In the retrospective part, patients enrolled in the study will not undergo cardiac rehabilitation as a part of the study intervention. The prospective part will include patients who have had an acute coronary syndrome in the past and will undergo cardiac rehabilitation as the study intervention.
After being included in the study, patients will undergo medical examination. Then subsequent procedures will be performed: anthropometric measurements; ECG; body composition analysis by bioimpedance; measurement of resting blood pressure, resting heart rate and oxygen saturation of hemoglobin; pulse wave analysis; transthoracic echocardiography of the heart; 24-hour blood pressure measurement by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM); 24-hour ECG recording using the Holter method; electrocardiographic exercise test on a treadmill and / or a six-minute walk test or other exercise test adequate to the patient's state of health; assessment of the quality of the diet; assessment of lifestyle, acceptance of disease and quality of life; assessment of the psychological profile.
Subsequently patients taking part in the prospective part of the study will perform a cardiac rehabilitation program.
After the cardiac rehabilitation program measurement procedures listed above will be repeated.
Before and after the cardiac rehabilitation program blood samples, urine samples and hair samples will be collected. Blood samples, urine samples and hair samples will also be collected from patients taking part in the retrospective part of the study.
Full description
Coronary heart disease, including acute coronary syndromes (ACS), is the leading cause of death in European countries, including Poland. In addition, it is one of the main causes of disability and the number of lost years of life and the number of years of life lost in good health. The costs of its treatment include not only the primary prophylaxis of cardiovascular events, the treatment of cardiovascular events, the treatment of chronic conditions and complications such as chronic heart failure or arrhythmia, but also the secondary and tertiary prophylaxis of acute coronary syndromes.
One of the basic elements of secondary and tertiary prevention of ACS is cardiac rehabilitation. It should be implemented as soon as possible after the ACS and be part of a comprehensive, planned and systematic care of the patient after ACS. The beneficial effect of cardiac rehabilitation on the cardiovascular system, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism and physical performance has been demonstrated in a way that does not raise any doubts. However, in the light of the growing epidemic of civilization diseases such as excessive body mass, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension and other cardiometabolic disorders, it is necessary to conduct high-quality research on the development of the most effective cardiac rehabilitation programs, so as to maximize their beneficial effect on patients' health.
The aims of the study are:
Research hypotheses:
The study will consist of a retrospective and prospective part. The retrospective part will include patients who have had acute coronary syndrome in the past and then - before being included in the study - have undergone cardiac rehabilitation. In the retrospective part, patients enrolled in the study will not undergo cardiac rehabilitation as a part of the study intervention. In contrast, the prospective part will include patients who have had an acute coronary syndrome in the past and will undergo cardiac rehabilitation as the study intervention.
About 200 women and men aged 18 to 99 are planned to be included in the study.
After being included in the study, patients will undergo medical examination and their medical documentation will be collected, analyzed, copied and archived. Then subsequent procedures will be performed:
Subsequently patients taking part in the prospective part of the study will perform a cardiac rehabilitation program.
After the cardiac rehabilitation program measurement procedures listed above (anthropometric measurements; ECG; non-invasive analysis of the body composition by bioimpedance; non-invasive measurement of resting blood pressure, resting heart rate and oxygen saturation of hemoglobin; non-invasive pulse wave analysis; non-invasive transthoracic echocardiography of the heart; non-invasive 24-hour blood pressure measurement by ABPM; non-invasive 24-hour ECG recording using the Holter method; non-invasive electrocardiographic exercise test; assessment of the quality of the diet; assessment of lifestyle, acceptance of disease and quality of life; assessment of the psychological profile) will be repeated.
Before and after the cardiac rehabilitation program blood samples, urine samples and hair samples will be collected. Blood samples, urine samples and hair samples will also be collected from patients taking part in the retrospective part of the study.
After data collection statistical analyses will be performed.
