INITIAL EXPERIENCEWITH CARDIAC
REHABILITATION PROGRAM IN A
PRIMARY CARE HEALTH CENTER
T
he cardiac rehabilitation programs have demonstrated their effectiveness
with a level of evidence I in patients with coronary disease in Phase II of their
recovery. However, the access is limited by the scarcity of health resources. The
possibility of its realization in primary care expands the number of patients who
could benefit from them. We developed a protocol for referral and follow-up in
low-risk patients agreed with the professionals of the health centre. For its im-
plementation, these professionals previously received training at the Hospital.
During the year 2016-18 the program was carried out by 30 patients carrying
out a program of cardiac rehabilitation in primary care in low risk patients is
a feasible and safe alternative, with results superimposable to those obtained
with the programs carried out in the Hospital.
