In an intervention trial 31 coronary patients participated in a comprehensive lifestyle change program and 43 control patients received the usual care of the conventional cardiac rehabilitation system. First preliminary findings show that the patients in the intervention group not only improved their health related lifestyle but also increased their exercise capacity and reduced depression, while there was no substantial improvement in the control group. Up to the present, the existing data indicate that German heart patients are able to make comprehensive lifestyle changes and that these changes have positive effects on biomedical and psychosocial variables.
在一项干预试验中，31名冠心病患者参与了一项全面的生活方式改变计划，43名对照患者接受了传统心脏康复系统的常规护理。初步研究结果表明，干预组患者不仅改善了与健康相关的生活方式，还提高了运动能力并减轻了抑郁情绪，而对照组则没有显著改善。迄今为止，现有数据表明德国心脏病患者能够做出全面的生活方式改变，并且这些改变对生物医学和心理社会变量具有积极影响。
