Predictors of completion of a psychological-behavioral intervention in acute coronary syndrome patients.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:Dropout from health behavior interventions in patients with heart disease is a major clinical issue that can impact recovery and prognosis. Positive psychology (PP)-based treatments have the potential to promote health behaviors, but predictors of PP intervention completion have not been examined in persons with heart disease. METHODS:Among 128 patients receiving a phone-based PP intervention to promote physical activity among acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients, numerous baseline sociodemographic, medical, and psychological variables, along with self-reported pre/post improvements in happiness and optimism (on 0-10 Likert scales) associated with an initial PP exercise, were examined as potential predictors of intervention completion. Logistic and linear regression analyses were used to assess relationships between these predictors and (a) intervention completion (at least 4 of 8 sessions completed) and (b) number of total sessions completed. RESULTS:No patient characteristic was associated with greater likelihood of completing the PP intervention. However, immediate pre-post change in optimism following the initial exercise was associated with intervention completion (odds ratio?=?1.98; 95% confidence interval: 1.28-3.05; p?=?.002; mean post-exercise increase in optimism 0.79 [SD 1.52] in completers vs. mean optimism decrease of 0.59 [SD 1.42] in non-completers). CONCLUSIONS:Pre-post change in optimism with a single PP activity predicted completion of an 8-week PP-based health behavior intervention in post-ACS patients. This information could be used clinically by having potential enrollees complete a single PP activity to assess intervention fit.

Project description:IntroductionHigh residual platelet reactivity (RPR) in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) receiving antiplatelet agents has been associated with a high risk of developing acute kidney injury (AKI).Study aimThis study aimed at identification of independent prognostic predictors of AKI risk in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after PCI.Study design, setting and patientsThis was a prospective single-center clinical trial that included 155 patients (n = 119 without AKI, n = 36 with AKI, mean age 64.0±10.6 years, of whom 74.2% were males), who underwent PCI with stenting. We prospectively evaluated RPR using optical aggregometry. Development of AKI was the primary endpoint.ResultsAcute renal dysfunction was observed in 36 patients (23.2%) after PCI, the risk factors of which according to univariate regression analysis were: age (p = 0.040), low diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (p = 0.001), having severe heart failure (HF) according to Killip (p<0.001), low level of hemoglobin (p = 0.026) and erythrocytes (p = 0.005), increased creatinine (p<0.001), low baseline glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (p<0.001), low left ventricular ejection fraction (LV EF) (p = 0.003), high residual platelet reactivity (RPR) (p<0.001) and platelet aggregation area under the curve (AUC) with 10 ?g/mL ADP (p<0.001), as well as dose of X-ray contrast medium (XCM) (p = 0.008). As a result of multivariate regression analysis the following independent predictors of AKI were established with the inclusion of the above factors: baseline creatinine level [OR 1.033 at 95% CI from 1.017 to 1.049; p<0.001], RPR with 10 ?g/mL ADP [OR 1.060 at 95% CI from 1.027 to 1.094; p = 0.001], dose of an XCM [?R 1.005 at 95% CI from 1.001 to 1.008; ? = 0.014], diastolic blood pressure (DBP) [OR 0.926 at 95% CI from 0.888 to 0.965; p<0.001].ConclusionADP-induced high residual platelet reactivity, baseline creatinine level, X-ray contrast medium, low diastolic blood pressure were independent predictors of AKI in patients with ACS after PCI.

Project description:BackgroundPsychological distress is common among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and has considerable adverse impacts on disease progression and health outcomes. Mindfulness-based intervention is a promising complementary approach to address patients' psychological needs and promote holistic well-being.ObjectiveThis study aims to examine the effects of a social media-based mindfulness psycho-behavioral intervention (MCARE) on psychological distress, psychological stress, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and cardiovascular risk factors among patients with ACS.MethodsThis study was a 2-arm, parallel-group randomized controlled trial. We recruited 178 patients (mean age 58.7, SD 8.9 years; 122/178, 68.5% male) with ACS at 2 tertiary hospitals in Jinan, China. Participants were randomly assigned to the MCARE group (n=89) or control group (n=89). The 6-week intervention consisted of 1 face-to-face session (phase I) and 5 weekly WeChat (Tencent Holdings Ltd)-delivered sessions (phase II) on mindfulness training and health education and lifestyle modification. The primary outcomes were depression and anxiety. Secondary outcomes included psychological stress, HRQoL, and cardiovascular risk factors (ie, smoking status, physical activity, dietary behavior, BMI, blood pressure, blood lipids, and blood glucose). Outcomes were measured at baseline (T0), immediately after the intervention (T1), and 12 weeks after the commencement of the intervention (T2).ResultsThe MCARE group showed significantly greater reductions in depression (T1: β=-2.016, 95% CI -2.584 to -1.449, Cohen d=-1.28, P<.001; T2: β=-2.089, 95% CI -2.777 to -1.402, Cohen d=-1.12, P<.001) and anxiety (T1: β=-1.024, 95% CI -1.551 to -0.497, Cohen d=-0.83, P<.001; T2: β=-0.932, 95% CI -1.519 to -0.346, Cohen d=-0.70, P=.002). Significantly greater improvements were also observed in psychological stress (β=-1.186, 95% CI -1.678 to -0.694, Cohen d=-1.41, P<.001), physical HRQoL (β=0.088, 95% CI 0.008-0.167, Cohen d=0.72, P=.03), emotional HRQoL (β=0.294, 95% CI 0.169-0.419, Cohen d=0.81, P<.001), and general HRQoL (β=0.147, 95% CI 0.070-0.224, Cohen d=1.07) at T1, as well as dietary behavior (β=0.069, 95% CI 0.003-0.136, Cohen d=0.75, P=.04), physical activity level (β=177.542, 95% CI -39.073 to 316.011, Cohen d=0.51, P=.01), and systolic blood pressure (β=-3.326, 95% CI -5.928 to -0.725, Cohen d=-1.32, P=.01) at T2. The overall completion rate of the intervention (completing ≥5 sessions) was 76% (68/89). Positive responses to the questions of the acceptability questionnaire ranged from 93% (76/82) to 100% (82/82).ConclusionsThe MCARE program generated favorable effects on psychological distress, psychological stress, HRQoL, and several aspects of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with ACS. This study provides clues for guiding clinical practice in the recognition and management of psychological distress and integrating the intervention into routine rehabilitation practice.Trial registrationChinese Clinical Trial Registry ChiCTR2000033526; https://www.chictr.org.cn/showprojEN.html?proj=54693.

Project description:BackgroundWhile prior research has provided important information about readmission rates following percutaneous coronary intervention, reports regarding charges and length of stay for readmission beyond 30 days post-discharge for patients in a large cohort are limited. The objective of this study was to characterize the rehospitalization of patients with acute coronary syndrome receiving percutaneous coronary intervention in a U.S. health benefit plan.MethodsThis study retrospectively analyzed administrative claims data from a large US managed care plan at index hospitalization, 30-days, and 31-days to 15-months rehospitalization. A valid Diagnosis Related Group code (version 24) associated with a PCI claim (codes 00.66, 36.0X, 929.73, 929.75, 929.78-929.82, 929.84, 929.95/6, and G0290/1) was required to be included in the study. Patients were also required to have an ACS diagnosis on the day of admission or within 30 days prior to the index PCI. ACS diagnoses were classified by the International Statistical Classification of Disease 9 (ICD-9-CM) codes 410.xx or 411.11. Patients with a history of transient ischemic attack or stroke were excluded from the study because of the focus only on ACS-PCI patients. A clopidogrel prescription claim was required within 60 days after hospitalization.ResultsOf the 6,687 ACS-PCI patients included in the study, 5,174 (77.4%) were male, 5,587 (83.6%) were <65 years old, 4,821 (72.1%) had hypertension, 5,176 (77.4%) had hyperlipidemia, and 1,777 (26.6%) had diabetes. At index hospitalization drug-eluting stents were the most frequently used: 5,534 (82.8%). Of the 4,384 patients who completed the 15-month follow-up, a total of 1,367 (31.2%) patients were rehospitalized for cardiovascular (CV)-related events, of which 811 (59.3%) were revascularization procedures: 13 (1.0%) for coronary artery bypass graft and 798 (58.4%) for PCI. In general, rehospitalizations associated with revascularization procedures cost more than other CV-related rehospitalizations. Patients rehospitalized for revascularization procedures had the shortest median time from post-index PCI to rehospitalization when compared to the patients who were rehospitalized for other CV-related events.ConclusionsFor ACS patients who underwent PCI, revascularization procedures represented a large portion of rehospitalizations. Revascularization procedures appear to be the most frequent, most costly, and earliest cause for rehospitalization after ACS-PCI.
