About this study

This study consists of a randomised clinical trial of two parallel groups conducted in patients with ischaemic heart disease after completing phase II of Cardiac Rehabilitation (RHBC) at the Centro de Especialidades Mislata (CEM),Hospital Manises. The objective is to assess adherence to structured and unstructured physical activity in the long term (6 and 12 months). In addition to the usual recommendations in the Control Group (CG), a motivational programme will be added to the Intervention Group (IG), which will consist of establishing an individualised exercise plan reviewed monthly, in addition to maintaining continuous contact with the physiotherapist.

Read the detailed description

Regular physical activity is an important measure in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. In the phase II Cardiac Rehabilitation programme, the acquisition of healthy lifestyle habits is taught and encouraged, with physical exercise as a fundamental pillar of the programme. Physical exercise should be maintained throughout life (RHBC phase III) in order to continue to produce cardiovascular benefits. However, few studies focus on strategies to increase adherence to physical activity, despite its benefits in disease control.

Motivation is one of the main barriers described by patients as well as the lack of contact with healthcare staff once the acute disease process is over. Therefore, we propose a simple, practical and economical intervention to increase adherence to physical activity, through a motivational programme, based on the establishment of objectives for each patient, carrying out an individualised physical exercise programme according to their preferences and needs, also establishing continuous contact with the physiotherapist to review and establish new objectives.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patient Adherence to Physical Activity

    Registry of the characteristics of physical exercise following the principle: frequency, intensity, time and type of exercise

    Measured: The groups, CG ad IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP.

  2. Participants Adherence to Physical Activity. Steps Control

    Registry of daily physical activity, steps per day, by means of an OMROM HJ-321-E pedometer

    Measured: The groups, control group (CG) and intervention group (IG), will be assessed at two times, 6 months and 12 months after the finish phase II of cardiac rehabilitation program (CRP).

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Changes in Functional Capacity: measurement of ergometer

    Incremental of ramp protocol exercise text in a treadmill

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at three times: at baseline, at finish phase II cardiac rehabilitation program, at 12 months after the finish phase II CRP.

  2. Changes in Blood Pressure

    Blood pressure recording using an OMROM HcM-FC 31 blood pressure monitor

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP

  3. Changes in biochemical variables

    Registry of the values of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, basal glycaemia and glycosylated haemoglobin to be analysed by means of a blood test

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at three times: at baseline, at finish phase II cardiac rehabilitation program, at 12 months after the finish phase II CRP.

  4. Changes in abdominal circumference

    Registry of centimetres of abdominal circumferene, midpoint from the lower rib margin to the antero-superior iliac crest in standing position, using measuring tape.

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP.

  5. Changes in Muscle Mass Index( BMI)

    Weight (kg) and height (m) will be recorded

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP.

  6. Changes in the perception of quality of life

    Registry of the score obtained by means of the SF-12 quality of life questionnaire, in its version adapted and validated in Spanish

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP

  7. Changes in anxiety levels

    Registry of the score obtained from the State-Trait Anxiety Questionnaire (STAI) in its version adapted and validated in Spanish

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP.

  8. Changes in depresión levels

    Registry of the score obtained in the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) in its version adapted and validated in Spanish

    Measured: The groups, CG and IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ischaemic Heart Diseases, run by Hospital de Manises at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient Adherence to Physical Activity (time frame: The groups, CG ad IG, will be assessed at four times: at baseline, at finish of the phase II CRP, at 6 months after the finish phase II CRP and at 12 months after the finish of phase II CRP.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Sep 2024.
