(1) Background: Cardiovascular diseases, in particular, myocardial infarction (MI), are the main threats to human health in modern times. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR), and especially increased physical activity, significantly prevent the consequences of MI. The aim of this study was to assess physical performance in patients after MI before and after CR. (2) Methods: 126 patients after MI were examined. They were admitted to the cardiac rehabilitation ward twice: in the 3rd month after MI, and then in the 6th month after the last rehabilitation session. CR lasted 20 treatment days (4 weeks with 5 treatment days and 2 days’ break). The exercise stress test on the treadmill and a 6-minute walk test (6MWT) were used to assess physical performance. Patients were assigned to an appropriate rehabilitation model due to their health condition. (3) Results: In the studied group, the exercise stress test time and the metabolic equivalent of task (MET), the maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max), and 6MWT score increased significantly (p = 0.0001) at two time-points of observation. (4) Conclusion: CR significantly improves physical performance in patients after MI.

OBJECTIVES To determine clinical outcome and to nd out the association between participation of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in cardiac rehabilitation programme. DESIGN A Prospective observational study. STUDY AREA : Department of Cardiology, Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research,Kolkata. PARTICIPANTS: Patients aged ≥18 years who underwent PCI due to AMI. OUTCOME MEASURES The outcomes were subsequent myocardial infarction, revascularisation, all-cause readmission, cardiac readmission, all-cause mortality and cardiac mortality. RESULT: The data of 1107 patients were included and 60.07%% of them participated in CR program. The risks of revascularisation, all cause readmission and cardiac readmission among CR participants were compared. The results of those analysis were consistent and showed that the CR participants had lower allcause mortality ,cardiac mortality,all cause readmission, cardiac admission. However no effect was observed for subsequent myocardial infarction or revascularisation. CONCLUSIONS: It was suggested CR participation may reduce the risk of all-cause mortality ,cardiac mortality, all cause readmission and cardiac admission.

Abstract Introduction 2017 ESC Guidelines for the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients have called for the assessment of the quality of care to establish measurable quality indicators in order to ensure that every patient with STEMI receives the best possible care. We investigated the quality indicators of health care services in Poland provided to STEMI patients. Methods The Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes (PL-ACS) is an ongoing, nationwide, multicenter, prospective, observational study of consecutively hospitalized patients with the whole spectrum of ACS in Poland. For the purpose of assessing quality indicators, we included 8,279 patients from the PL-ACS Registry hospitalized with STEMI between January 1 and December 31, 2018. Results All emergency medical services (EMS) are equipped with ECG/defibrillators. 408 of 8,279 patients (4.9%) arrived at PCI center by self-transport, 4,791 patients (57.9%) patients arrived at PCI center by direct EMS transport, and 2,900 patients (37.2%) were transferred from non-PCI facilities. Whilst 95.1% of STEMI patients arriving in the first 12 hours received reperfusion therapy, the rates of timely reperfusion were much lower (ranging from 39.4% to 55.0% for various STEMI pathways). 7,807 patients (94.3%) underwent PCI as a mode of primary reperfusion strategy. The median left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 46% and was assessed before discharge in 86.0% of patients. 489 of 8,279 patients (5.9%) died during hospital stay. Optimal medical therapy is prescribed in 50–85% of patients depending on various clinical settings. Only one in two STEMI patient is enrolled in a cardiac rehabilitation program at discharge. No patient-reported outcomes were recorded in the PL-ACS Registry. Figure 1 Conclusions The results of this study identified areas of healthcare systems that require solid improvement. These include prehospital ECG decision strategy, direct transport to PCI center, timely reperfusion, guidelines-based medical therapy (in particular in patients with heart failure), referral to cardiac rehabilitation/secondary prevention programs. More importantly, we recognized an urgent need for the initiation of recording quality indicators associated with patient-reported outcomes.
