The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness of a cardiac rehabilitation program (phase II) in improving participants' quality of life (QOL). Existing data collected previously by a not-for-profit rural community hospital using the SF-36 tool were analyzed. The secondary data consisted of precardiac and post-cardiac rehabilitation SF-36 scores for 121 phase II participants. All the 8 subscale post scores of the SF-36 were higher when compared to the pre-rehabilitation scores. In this non-controlled trial, results suggest that participation in rural cardiac rehabilitation programs may improve patients' perceptions of QOL and health.
本研究的目的是探讨心脏康复计划(第二阶段)在改善参与者生活质量(QOL)方面的有效性。分析了一家非营利性农村社区医院先前使用SF-36工具收集的现有数据。二次数据包括121名第二阶段参与者心脏康复前和康复后的SF-36评分。与康复前评分相比,SF-36的所有8个分量表的后测评分均更高。在这项非对照试验中,结果表明参与农村心脏康复计划可能会改善患者对生活质量和健康的认知。
