Official Title: Factors Associated With Participation in Hospital-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation Program in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome
Brief Summary: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of the most important causes of mortality and morbidity all over the world.
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a crucial part of secondary prevention and optimal care of patients with ACS.
However, the participation rate in CR after ACS is far from expected.
In our study, we will aim to examine the rate of participation in cardiac rehabilitation and the factors affecting it in patients followed up for acute coronary syndrome in the coronary intensive care unit of our hospital.
Our main hypothesis is that the lower rate of participation in cardiac rehabilitation in patients with acute coronary syndrome is associated with one or more of that older age, female gender, multimorbidity, poor functional capacity, lower health literacy level or quality of life levels.
