Abstract Background Cardiac patients with low socioeconomic status and other ethnic background have worse prognosis and outcomes. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has the potential to diminish this socioeconomic and ethnical disparity, but evidence is lacking. Purpose To describe if socioeconomic status and ethnicity predicts CR outcomes in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients in Denmark. Methods The study is based “The Danish Cardiac rehabilitation database” (DHRD) which monitors quality of CR in Denmark. The study population are all patients with CHD (myocardial infarction or stable coronary artery disease with revascularization or medical treatment) participating in CR reported to the database from Aug 2015 to Mar 2018. The quality indicators (QI) were >80% participation in exercise sessions, >10% increase in VO2peak, smoking cessation, LDL <1.8mmol/L (or 50% reduction of baseline LDL), blood pressure <140/90, dietary consulting, screening for diabetes, screening for depression and medical treatment with acetylsalicylic acid, statins and beta-blockers at completion of CR. Educational level as a marker for socioeconomic status was divided into no-, basic-, medium- and high education, and ethnicity into Danish, Western and non-western origin. We compared QI across educational level and ethnicity using descriptive statistics. Results Analyses are based on 9000 patients. Age and gender differed significantly in the groups (all p<0.001). Medical treatment and achievement of LDL- and blood pressure control was overall good with no difference across socioeconomic strata or ethnicity. Despite similar participation rate, higher education was associated with greater improvements in VO2peak. Patients of non-western ethnicity were less often screened for depression and less often received dietary consulting. Conclusion In this nationwide quality database for CR, medical treatment and achievement of traditional risk factor goals was good across socioeconomic and ethnic strata. However, outcome in VO2peak and implementation of screening for depression and diabetes showed disparity across socioeconomic and ethnic groups. The effect on long-term outcomes remains to be addressed. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Objective. To explore the application effect of meticulous nursing on community elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) under the background of medical treatment partnerships. Methods. A total of 96 elderly CHD patients treated in the community from July 2019 to July 2020 were selected as the research objects and divided into the experimental group (n = 48) and control group (n = 48) by the medical personnel according to their admission order. Clinical routine nursing was performed to the patients in the control group, and meticulous nursing under the background of medical treatment partnerships was conducted to the patients in the experimental group, so as to evaluate their quality of life (QOL) and self-care agency after intervention by the Chinese Questionnaire on Quality of Life in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease (CQQC) and Exercise of Self-Care Agency (ESCA) scale. Results. Compared with the control group after intervention, the patients in the experimental group presented significantly higher ESCA scores, HHI scores, and CQQC scores and longer 6 min walking distance ( P < 0.001 ) and remarkably lower POMS scores ( P < 0.001 ) and had obviously higher numbers of cases with various health-related actions ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion. Meticulous nursing under the background of medical treatment partnerships is a reliable method for improving the QOL and mood state of community elderly CHD patients, which greatly promotes patients’ self-care agency and expectation. Further research will be conducive to establishing a better solution for patients.
