In our #cardiacrehab program we quantify the #ventilation rate using a CO2 monitor as part of our #safety protocol for #patients and #staff in order to minimize #aerosol transmission 🌬🦠 #rehabilitation #COVID19 💪 #SomosElMarañon
‘Hospital tests & procedures used to diagnose & monitor a range of #heart & circulatory conditions are often among the vital first steps in someone's treatment journey. Delaying them could have a domino effect on the rest of their care’ by @TheBHF dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…
The impact of the #COVID19 pandemic on #cardiology services @Heart_BMJ openheart.bmj.com/content/7/2/e0…
“All areas of #cardiology service provision sustained significant reductions, which included outpatient clinics, investigations, procedures & cardiology community services such as #heartfailure & #CardiacRehab.”
In this national longitudinal study of 4570 patients with #heartattack, attendance at #CardiacRehab was associated with a temporal improvement in health related quality of life (#HRQoL) at up to 12 months following hospital discharge. @Heart_BMJ heart.bmj.com/content/early/….
‘Health-related quality of life (#HRQoL) is an important outcome measure following #heartattack’, states @benhurdus first author.
Healthcare professionals (& researchers) have historically focused on objective measures of poor health, such as mortality & life expectancy, but often patients consider improvements to HRQoL equally important to length of life.
