Abstract

BACKGROUND: Despite evidence of its benefits, attendance at cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programmes is poor. Past studies to identify predictors of non-attendance have been limited by their small sample size, particularly for female patients. The present study was designed to identify socio-demographic and clinical predictors of non-attendance and drop-out separately for men and women automatically referred to CR programmes. METHOD AND SUBJECTS: Prospective study of CR programme attendance amongst 808 patients consecutively admitted over an 11-month period to one of two hospitals in Melbourne, Australia, after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), or to undergo coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABGS) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). RESULTS: Of the 652 eligible patients, 573 (88%) were successfully tracked at 4 months. Of these, 284 (49.6%) had attended a CR programme, while 272 (47.5%) had not. Using logistic regression, the significant predictors of programme non-attendance among men were having had a PCI, being a non-driver, and being aged 70 or more. The only factor predictive of non-attendance for women was being aged 70 or more. Amongst attenders, 67 (23.6%) patients discontinued the programme. Being a smoker, having diabetes and being unemployed at the time of hospital admission were predictive of programme drop-out by men. Being physically inactive at admission was predictive of programme drop-out by women. CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrated a relatively high rate of CR programme attendance. Special attention needs to be directed towards males who are older, PCI patients, smokers, unemployed or non-drivers, and females who are older or inactive.

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.
