Abstract

Objective To assess the effect of the "Program of Training in Integral Care for Secondary Cardiovascular Prevention in Primary Care Nursing" on the level of knowledge, the degree of application of comprehensive cardiovascular care, and on the continuity of care between the cardiac rehabilitation and primary care units, in relation to post-infarction patients.Methods Quasi-experimental before-after study without control group. Comprised an ad-hoc survey prior to training via the Internet and a post-training survey; both the pre- and post-course surveys were anonymous. The program consisted of secondary cardiovascular prevention training, chronicity in the cardiovascular patient and adherence to the therapeutic plan, and follow-up protocol.Results Over one third of the respondents did not know the control objectives of the different cardiovascular risk factors, more marked regarding lipid control. The program significantly improved the knowledge of the objectives of blood pressure, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol, and the self-perception of better monitoring of lipid parameters and waist circumference. In centers with a cardiac rehabilitation unit, 73% of respondents indicated that there was "no" communication with the unit before the course, reducing to 55% in the post-course survey.Conclusion There are clear training needs of nurses for their involvement in these secondary prevention programs. A specific continuous training in secondary cardiovascular prevention for nurses in the field of primary care, improves and facilitates the acquisition of knowledge at this level, can improve the approach of patients with cardiovascular events during the first months of said event and communication with the reference cardiac rehabilitation units.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
