Coronary disease & ACSCohort study
Socio-geographical factors associated with cardiac rehabilitation participation after percutaneous coronary intervention: a registry-based cohort study from France
- Registry-based cohort study
- regional percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) register
Authors' conclusion
Post-PCI CR participation was low. Proximity to CR centres promoted participation for ACS patients, while CR usage correlated with higher socioeconomic status for CCS patients.
Study context
- Population
- Patients undergoing PCI for ACS or CCS, Aquitaine region (France), 2017–2019
- Participants
- 19,002 patients
- Exposure
- Socio-geographical factors and cardiac rehabilitation (CR) participation
- Outcome
- CR participation
- Follow-up
- 1 and 3 months in ACS; 3 and 6 months in CCS
