By John Russell
Cardiac Rehabilitation?• Cardiac rehabilitation is a programme of
exercise and information sessions that help you get back to everyday life as quickly as possible.
• To help people in the hospital community and home.
• Meeting their 30/5.• Prove that exercise is not scary.• Reducing risk of happening again.
Exercise Prescription?• Referral of patients to exercise programmes.• F.I.T.T.• Warm Up• HR Zones / Timing• Cool Down• Medications
• Measuring : • Aerobic endurance • Strength • Flexibility• Body composition• Balance• Co-ordination
Benefits of physical activityfor Heart Disease
Exercise prescription has shown to have major benefits to Coronary Heart Disease:•Decreased blood pressure•Reduction in heart rate and increased myocardial blood flow•An increase in exercise tolerance.•A reduction in the need for anti anginal and anti hypertensive medication.•An improvement in lipid profiles.•Improvement in other risk factors such as insulin resistance.•Improvements in psychological function and quality of life.•If someone is active they benefit from a reduced risk of CHD•A reduction in mortality by participation in a CR Programme incorporating exercise of 25%.
All these benefits
… yet we have a problem
Maintenance & Adherence.
- We’ve got this great product. But a
recent study for phase III found that 1/5th of participants didn’t complete the
programme and 1/10th didn’t even turn up! [3]
- If your target was 350 that means your actual number for completion would need to be 420 referrals.
Contemporary Studies in this area“Illness” and “not interested” were the most common primary reasons for non-attendance and non-completion respectively.”
“The study highlights that individual patient … needs, if unmet contribute to poor attendance.”
If these needs were identified and addressed … attendance at Phase III programmes would improve. [3]”
A previous study found that compliance was between 45% and 60% possibly caused by the absence of supervision or continued follow-up. [4]
• Patients – to live a normal, healthy life• Practitioners – to help patients with the above
whilst adhering to trust values to achieve targets.
The Challenge
F.I.T.T.
S.M.A.R.T.
What are we actually prescribing?
Exercise?
Adherence.
Motivation.
Fun.
Confidence.
A New Lifestyle.
New Skills.
How can we achieve this?What can we prescribe…
Pre F.I.T.T.Post F.I.T.T.
Assessing Motivation• Motivation Theories
– Transtheoretical Model / Theory of Reasoned Action /Theory of Planned Behaviour / Health Belief Model / Self Efficacy Theory / Motivational Interviewing
• Being Kind – Showing care• Self Monitoring / Confidence Rulers• Their own reasons for change, not ours• Personalisation• Motivational Questionnaires
Prescribing Goal Setting
• SMARTER– Evaluate Regularly
• Long Term OUTCOME Goals– Beyond a 12 week programme
• Short Term BEHAVIOURAL Goals• Plan for relapse (triggers)• Keeping Track
– Goal Setting Books/Booklets
• Rewards
Prescribing Environments
• Individualisation. Get people comfortable first.• What’s important to them, help them achieve it• Individuals/Groups/• Times of day• In home/community/medical/Combination• Comfortable environments• Face to Face/Telephone/Internet/Combination
Considerations• Clinics located in the community / medical sites
may not be appropriate for certain populations.• In home only programmes run the risk of
isolation and dependence. • Programmes should keep in mind access to
information, giving someone a book is useless if they can’t read.
• Giving someone an audio programme is English is useless if they speak Punjabi.
Prescribing Support
• Buddying• Mentoring• Past Success• Groups• Partner• Family• Rewarding Success• T Shirts/Certificates/Trophies
The Finished Product

communities!
