Brief Summary
The association between objectively measured physical activity intensities (light, moderate and vigorous), sedentary time and clinical outcomes has not been clarified in patients after a myocardial infarction. The overall objective of the study is to explore associations between accelerometer measured physical activity and clinical outcomes after a myocardial infarction. Moreover, the association between changes in physical activity and outcomes will be assessed.

Study Arms (1)
Cohort group
Diagnosis of a type 1 myocardial infarction registered in SWEDEHEART Age 18-79 years at discharge from hospital
Interventions
Study personnel will initiate an accelerometer and inform the patient to wear the accelerometer with an elastic belt on their right hip during waking hours for seven consecutive days. Moreover, patients are instructed to register their wear time in an activity diary in paper form. In addition, patients will register their working hours, if relevant. After seven days, patients send back the accelerometer and diary in a pre-paid envelope. The same procedure is repeated at the second follow-up visit at 1 year.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with myocardial infarction will be recruited at the first (2 months after discharge) cardiac rehabilitation follow-up visit at hospital.
You may qualify if:
- Signed informed consent
- Diagnosis of a type 1 myocardial infarction registered in SWEDEHEART
- Age 18-79 years at discharge from hospital
- Attending the first visit in the cardiac rehabilitation (CR) registry SEPHIA (2 months after discharge)
You may not qualify if:
- Inability to understand Swedish
- Non-ambulatory
- Any mental condition that may interfere with the possibility for the patient to comply with the study protocol
