NCT01395095

Brief Summary

The objective is to investigate whether in acute coronary syndrome patients the cardiac risk profile will improve with 2 new extended cardiac rehabilitation interventions and if these patients maintain healthier life style habits and a more active life style compared to patients randomized to standard cardiac rehabilitation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Reduction of the SCORE Risk Score

    Healthy lifestyle is quantified by the SCORE Risk Score (7). Apart from age, sex, the SCORE includes the modifiable risk factors total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and smoking status.

    6 months after the intervention

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • improved physical fitness

    6 months after the intervention

Study Arms (3)

OPTICARE-A

EXPERIMENTAL

Starts 2 weeks after ending standard cardiac rehabilitation (CR) and is based on five phonebased coaching sessions at 6 weeks intervals up to 6 months. Each coaching session includes 5 stages: (1) Asking questions to establish patient's knowledge, attitude and beliefs about their risk factors; (2) Explanation and rationale; (3) Assertiveness training; (4) Goal setting; (5) Reassessment.

Other: rehabilitation+telephonic coaching

OPTICARE-B

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Standard CR according to the guidelines consisting of (a) 2 times a week exercise program of 1.5 hours during 12 weeks, (b) upon request of the patient: participation in multifactorial lifestyle and risk factor sessions (medical information, dietary advises and emotional advises, information about risk factors, smoking cessation program and stress management sessions)

Other: OPTICARE-B

OPTICARE-C

EXPERIMENTAL

(a) standard CR consisting of 2 times a week exercise program of 1.5 hours during 12 weeks. (b) (mandatory) participation in multifactorial lifestyle and risk factor sessions: i.e. 4 sessions of 2 hours each (medical information, dietary advises, risk factors and emotional advises). If applicable, patients will participate in smoking cessation, dietary and stress management programs . (c) Individual sessions and a personalized home-based program to promote an active life style upon instruction of a physiotherapist and physical activity counselor during and after completion of rehabilitation. Activity monitors will be used to provide feedback. (d) Additional compulsory supervised multifactorial lifestyle and risk management training sessions of each 2 hours provided at 4, 6 and 12 months.

Other: OPTICARE-C

Interventions

Each coaching session includes 5 stages: (1) Asking questions to establish patient's knowledge, attitude and beliefs about their risk factors; (2) Explanation and rationale; (3) Assertiveness training; (4) Goal setting; (5) Reassessment.
