“…The mean global score ranged from (4.66 ±1.0) in Eastern Europe to ( 5.29 ±1.0) in Scandinavia (12). Furthermore, the mean global score in this study was also lower than the mean global scores obtained from patients in many countries such as Canada, United States, Switzerland, Austria, Brazil and Turkey (13)(14)(15)(16).…”

BackgroundRegular physical activity reduces the risk of cardiovascular events, but most ischemic heart disease (IHD) patients do not obtain enough.Methods and ResultsACTIVE REWARD (A Clinical Trial Investigating Effects of a Randomized Evaluation of Wearable Activity Trackers with Financial Rewards) was a 24‐week home‐based, remotely monitored, randomized trial with a 16‐week intervention (8‐week ramp‐up incentive phase and 8‐week maintenance incentive phase) and an 8‐week follow‐up. Patients used wearable devices to track step counts and establish a baseline. Patients in control received no other interventions. Patients in the incentive arm received personalized step goals and daily feedback for all 24 weeks. In the ramp‐up incentive phase, daily step goals increased weekly by 15% from baseline with a maximum of 10 000 steps and then remained fixed. Each week, $14 was allocated to a virtual account; $2 could be lost per day for not achieving step goals. The primary outcome was change in mean daily steps from baseline to the maintenance incentive phase. Ischemic heart disease patients had a mean (SD) age of 60 (11) years and 70% were male. Compared with control, patients in the incentive arm had a significantly greater increase in mean daily steps from baseline during ramp‐up (1388 versus 385; adjusted difference, 1061 [95% confidence interval, 386–1736]; P<0.01), maintenance (1501 versus 264; adjusted difference, 1368 [95% confidence interval, 571–2164]; P<0.001), and follow‐up (1066 versus 92; adjusted difference, 1154 [95% confidence interval, 282–2027]; P<0.01).ConclusionsLoss‐framed financial incentives with personalized goal setting significantly increased physical activity among ischemic heart disease patients using wearable devices during the 16‐week intervention, and effects were sustained during the 8‐week follow‐up.Clinical Trial Registration URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT02531022.

“…Therefore, comparison of HRQoL among subgroups has become an important focus. Two HRQoL questionnaires have recently been shown to allow for comparison among different diagnostic groups -the HeartQol and the MacNew [130][131][132]. The HeartQol, in particular, has demonstrated validity across 22 countries and several languages and has been shown to predict 5-year mortality and cardiac readmissions in patients with ischaemic heart disease [133].…”

Psychological Aspects of Cardiac Care and Rehabilitation: Time to Wake Up to Sleep?

Psychological aspects of cardiac care & rehabilitation: Time to wake up to sleep? Abstract:Psychological and psychosocial factors have long been linked to cardiovascular disease. These psychosocial factors, including low socioeconomic status, social support/isolation, stress and distress, personality and sleep disturbance increase risk of cardiovascular events and negatively impact on quality of life. These factors may have direct effects on cardiovascular disease via immune or neuroendocrine pathways, or more indirect effects, by for example limiting adherence to recommended therapies and cardiac rehabilitation. Most psychosocial risk factors can be assessed relatively easily using standardised tools. Sleep disturbance, in particular, is gaining evidence for its importance, and may be crucial to address. While the management of certain psychosocial risk factors is an ethical requirement for care and improves quality of life, unfortunately there is little evidence that such strategies impact on 'hard' endpoints such as recurrent myocardial infarction. A comprehensive biopsychosocial approach to management of these psychosocial factors is required to maximise the benefits patients derive from cardiac care.
