The purpose of this trial is to evaluate wether a cardiac Telerehabilitation programme is as effective as an in-person rehabilitation program after acute coronary syndrome in the control of cardiovascular risk factors

Detailed Description

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate wether a cardiac Telerehabilitation programme is as effective as an in-person rehabilitation program after acute coronary syndrome in the control of cardiovascular risk factors via the following variables: % patients with a positive result in the composite variable integrating different targets for secondary prevention in cardiovascular disease and lifestyle habits; Adherence to cardiac rehabilitation program; Adherence to pharmacological treatment; Quality of Life improvement ; Anxiety and depression; Satisfaction rate; Functional capacity; Cardiac cause hospitalization; Emergency visits; and Angioplasty revascularization procedure.

Conditions

Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI); Cardiac Rehabilitation

Study Design

• Allocation Method: RANDOMIZED
• Intervention Model: PARALLEL
• Primary Study Purpose: PREVENTION
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

Tele-rehabilitation

Patients with a myocardial infarction candidates to a rehabilitation program, will be enrolled. The patient is guided via a face-to-face telematic call to perform the cardiac rehabilitation exercises and life style education.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Experimental: Cardiac tele-rehabilitation

Intervention Type: BEHAVIORAL

Patients will connect to their health care provider via a tele-call

In person cardiac rehabilitation

Patients with a myocardial infarction candidates to a rehabilitation program, will be enrolled. The patient attends an in-person cardiac rehabilitation exercises and life style education at the hospital.

Group Type: ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Other: Control, in person cardiac rehabilitation

Intervention Type: BEHAVIORAL

Patients will attend an ambulatory cardiac rehabilitation unit
