This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: To develop the protocol for a hybrid home-based cardiac rehabilitation model within Indiana University Health medical system. Methods: Participants were referred to cardiopulmonary rehabilitation (CR) by a physician. During each participant's orientation, they were assigned into one of three research groups: an onsite traditional print education CR group as the control, an onsite online education group, and a hybrid home-based (HHBCR) group whose education was entirely the online education format. Patients who were unable to attend onsite CR were assigned to the HHBCR group which included online interactive education and home exercise sessions. 16 patients were initially recruited, and 7 patients completed CR to provide a framework for developing a HHBCR program. Data were collected before and after CR and included scores on several questionnaires: CADE-Q2, PHQ-9, Rate Your Plate, and a 6-minute walk test. Results: 2 patients completed onsite traditional CR, 3 patients completed online education onsite, and 2 patients completed 30-day outcomes for hybrid home-based CR with online education. The control group with print education, had increases of 9-11 points between their CADE-Q2 pre-assessment and post-assessment. The onsite online education group showed changes of -6-28 between their CADE-Q2 pre-assessment and post-assessment. The hybrid home-based online education group had increases of 4-5 points between their CADE-Q2 pre-assessment and post-assessment. All patients increased their 6MWT score pre-post assessment except for one patient in the hybrid home-based interactive education group. Conclusion: Both traditional and online education models appear to be effective for CR patients, showing that it is important to be adaptable in order to provide strong health care services to patients in ways that are most effective and impactful to them. The hybrid-home-based care model could provide access to rehabilitation services for patients who cannot attend onsite CR for any reason. Future work in this area is necessary to continue to develop protocols that are effective and accessible for patients and clinicians alike.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this research was to evaluate the efficacy of an interactive virtual education model compared to a traditional education model in cardiopulmonary rehabilitation (CR). The number one cause of death in the United States is cardiovascular disease (CVD) and CR has been shown to decrease readmission rates and second events in those with CVD. Risk factor modification is important for patients with CVD as living a healthy lifestyle is key to reducing adverse cardiovascular events. However, many people have low health literacy, which plays a large role in determining future health outcomes and can also act as a barrier to self-managing one's health. Therefore, novel approaches for education are needed to improve patient knowledge and increase patient health outcomes. Methods: Forty-one patients were originally recruited for the study and twenty-one patients with diagnoses of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), chronic heart failure (CHF), mitral valve replacement (MVR), non-elevated ST segment myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), elevated ST segment myocardial infarction (STEMI), and transaortic valve replacement (TAVR) were included in data analysis. Patients were referred to outpatient CR by a physician, went through the normal orientation process, then randomly assigned into the traditional or online education group. Efficacy of education was assessed by the second version of coronary artery disease education questionnaire (CADE-Q2), patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Rate Your Plate (RYP) surveys administered before and after completion of CR. Scores from each survey and questionnaire were averaged and compared between each group to assess pre- to post- scores by a two-way repeated-measures ANOVA. Patient demographics were compared using an unpaired t-test. Results: There were no differences (p>0.05) in age, sex, BMI, or number of sessions between the two groups. There was a main effect of time (p0.05) across all measurements in both groups. However, there were no interactions (p0.05) for any outcome indicting no differences between the online intervention group and the traditional group. Conclusion: CR is beneficial in increasing functional capacity, healthy lifestyle modifications, and reducing depression symptoms. Online education is as beneficial as the traditional education given and can be used to further personalize patient education and contribute to home-hybrid-based CR (HHBCR) education.

Download or read book Patient Engagement written by Guendalina Graffigna and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patient engagement should be envisaged as a key priority today to innovate healthcare services delivery and to make it more effective and sustainable. The experience of engagement is a key qualifier of the exchange between the demand (i.e. citizens/patients) and the supply process of healthcare services. To understand and detect the strategic levers that sustain a good quality of patients’ engagement may thus allow not only to improve clinical outcomes, but also to increase patients’ satisfaction and to reduce the organizational costs of the delivery of services. By assuming a relational marketing perspective, the book offers practical insights about the developmental process of patients’ engagement, by suggesting concrete tools for assessing the levels of patients’ engagement and strategies to sustain it. Crucial resources to implement these strategies are also the new technologies that should be (1) implemented according to precise guidelines and (2) designed according to a user-centered design process. Furthermore, the book describes possible fields of patients’ engagement application by describing the best practices and experiences matured in different fields

Download or read book Efficacy of a Technology Enabled Home based Cardiac Rehabilitation Program on Aerobic Fitness Vascular Health and Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors written by Clare McDermott and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is part of the current multidisciplinary approach to the management of cardiovascular disease (CVD), uptake and adherence is low. Reasons are multifactorial and include, time, accessibility, transport issues and motivation. Advances in technology have the potential to enable the delivery of home-based CR (HBCR). The purpose of this PhD research program was to evaluate the efficacy of a technology enabled HBCR program (PATHway) compared to usual care (UC) Study 1 Heart rate (HR) monitoring using wrist-worn watches allows patients to monitor and adjust their exercise intensity to meet their rehabilitation goals. This study assessed the accuracy of commercially available wristwatch HR monitors. There was a significant correlation between wrist-worn monitors and the criterion measure (3-lead Holter monitor) at both rest and during exercise with appropriate limits of agreement. Study 2 Exercise training is one of the core elements of CR. This study assessed exercise session duration, physiological and perceptual responses of participants (n=53) using PATHway, a 6 month, home-based technology enabled CR program. Participants used the PATHway system for an average of 36 min per session at an intensity corresponding to 67% HRR. The average RPE per sessions was 5.2 on the 0-10 Borg scale. Study 3 Study 3 compared anthropometric measures, cardiorespiratory fitness, strength (sit-to-stand, isokinetic and isometric strength and hand grip), vascular structure (cIMT) and function (FMD) and blood biomarkers between CVD patients (n=120) randomized to PATHway and UC. There was no change in cardiorespiratory fitness, strength, vascular structure or function in either PATHway or UC at 6-months.
Download or read book Cardiac Rehabilitation Manual written by Josef Niebauer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fulfills the need for practical guidance among all professionals involved in the management of these patients, from residents and fellows of cardiology and internal medicine, surgical teams, physiotherapy professionals, critical care physicians and family medicine practitioners. The thoroughly updated content takes into account recent developments in cardiac rehabilitation, and incorporates practical advice on how to use guidelines in clinical practice. There will be one new chapter on patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy and all the others will be updated to keep up-to-date with the guidelines and current practice. Cardiac rehabilitation is of key importance to ameliorate long-term morbidity and mortality resulting from cardiac diseases and events. However, much of the current literature is dense, unwelcoming and academic in style and format. For those physicians understanding the scope of cardiac rehabilitation there is a need to distill the guidelines and various management options available to them into a concise practical manual. Up until now, all references have looked at the general options, but there is definite need to investigate the practicalities of individual patient groups.

This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educating dual language learners (DLLs) and English learners (ELs) effectively is a national challenge with consequences both for individuals and for American society. Despite their linguistic, cognitive, and social potential, many ELsâ€"who account for more than 9 percent of enrollment in grades K-12 in U.S. schoolsâ€"are struggling to meet the requirements for academic success, and their prospects for success in postsecondary education and in the workforce are jeopardized as a result. Promoting the Educational Success of Children and Youth Learning English: Promising Futures examines how evidence based on research relevant to the development of DLLs/ELs from birth to age 21 can inform education and health policies and related practices that can result in better educational outcomes. This report makes recommendations for policy, practice, and research and data collection focused on addressing the challenges in caring for and educating DLLs/ELs from birth to grade 12.
Download or read book Comparing Virtual and Center Based Cardiac Rehabilitation on Changes in Frailty written by Evan MacEachern and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is the gold standard for the secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Frailty defines health in ageing and is associated with adverse health outcomes. Evidence suggests traditional CR can reduce frailty levels, with the greatest improvements observed in the most severely frail patients. CR is also offered virtually, whereby patients receive their care remotely. Yet, whether virtual CR can improve patient frailty has not been studied. Here, we compared virtual versus center-based CR on changes in frailty and cardiovascular biomarkers. We observed center (0.14±0.003) versus virtual CR participants (0.07±0.003) had higher baseline frailty, though, we found no effect of cardiac rehabilitation model on change in frailty. Additionally, frailer virtual participants at admission showed greater frailty improvements (-3.810 [-7.360,-0.251], p=.034) and greater reductions in triglyceride (-0.766 [-1.508,-0.025], p=0.04) and cholesterol (-0.660 [-1.229,-0.092], p=.021) than center-based participants. Therefore, we recommend virtual CR as a feasible alternative to traditional CR.
Download or read book Blended Synchronous Learning written by Matt G Bower and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blended synchronous learning - where remote students participate in face-to-face classes by means of rich-media synchronous technologies such as video conferencing, web conferencing and virtual worlds - is an emerging phenomenon in education. More and more teachers are attempting to teach in this challenging mode, but without any systematic research evidence to help guide their blended synchronous learning practices. The Blended Synchronous Learning Handbook is a definitive resource that addresses this issue. It includes a Blended Synchronous Learning Design Framework that offers pedagogical, technological and logistical recommendations for teachers attempting to design and implement blended synchronous learning lessons. It also includes a Rich-Media Synchronous Technology Capabilities Framework to support the selection of technologies for different types of learning activities, as well as a review of relevant literature, a summary of the Blended Synchronous Learning Scoping Study, detailed reports of seven blended synchronous learning case studies, and an in-depth cross case analysis to underpin the recommendations that are drawn.
Download or read book Home based Cardiac Rehabilitation written by Jozua Johannes Kraal and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this thesis we have developed and evaluated the effectiveness of a home-based training intervention for cardiac rehabilitation patients that accommodates the preferences and constraints of patients while retaining the effectiveness of conventional, centre-based cardiac rehabilitation. In the first part of this thesis, we showed that the effectiveness of centre-based exercise programmes for coronary artery patients and chronic heart failure patients is mainly determined by their total energy expenditure. This means that adjustments to programme characteristics (training intensity, session duration and frequency, programme length) can be made freely, without impairing effects on exercise capacity, provided that energy expenditure as a whole is preserved. Therefore, training programmes can be tailored towards patients' preferences and translated to the home environment. In the second part of this thesis, we showed that wearable sensors can accurately assess physical activity levels of beta-blocker-medicated cardiac patients in the home-environment. In addition, we described a randomised controlled trial studying the clinical and cost-effectiveness of home-based cardiac rehabilitation with telemonitoring guidance compared to centre-based cardiac rehabilitation. Home-based training resulted in similar improvements in physical fitness and health-related quality life as centre-based training, with a trend towards lower costs. We concluded that home-based cardiac rehabilitation with telemonitoring guidance is a useful alternative to centrebased cardiac rehabilitation for young and motivated patients with low-to-moderate cardiac risks."--Samenvatting auteur.
