2021 Annual Meeting: B205 Interventions to Improve Health-Related Behaviors in Cardiac Rehabilitation: What’s the Evidence?
The benefits of cardiac rehabilitation are dependent on the ability of patients to make behavioral changes. Smoking cessation, increases in physical activity, changes to diet, and medication adherence are all necessary for optimal secondary prevention. However, behavior change is challenging and may require intense or repeated intervention. In this session we will review the evidence for behavioral interventions that target these four common behavioral goals within the context of CR. Additionally, we will explore the issues with having multiple behavioral goals to target simultaneously and discuss the gaps in the current literature.
