Abstract
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a multidisciplinary intervention program aimed at enhancing the physical, psychological, and social functioning of patients with cardiovascular disease. Although CR is cost-effective and reduces mortality and readmission rates, and many patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) do not adhere to CR. This review aimed to synthesize the evidence on adherence to CR in patients with AMI after PCI (AMI-PCI). The review was conducted using the methodology proposed by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) to guide reviews and reporting using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses Extended for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). We searched PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, Ovid, and Scopus databases, and two reviewers independently screened the abstracts and full texts of eligible studies against the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Disagreements were resolved in consultation with a third reviewer. A total of 10 studies were included in the analysis. The results demonstrated that CR reduces the incidence of complications and improves the quality of life of patients with AMI-PCI. However, the CR adherence rate was low, and the factors affecting it are complex and varied, including age, sex, and employment status. Furthermore, interventions to improve adherence in patients with AMI-PCI mainly combined the internet-based interventions, including videoconferencing tele-training, with wearable device monitoring and intelligent management platform follow-up. All these interventions have shown promising results compared with routine care. Adherence to CR in patients with AMI-PCI is generally low, and CR adherence is affected by many factors; however, relevant research designs are rare and simple. Healthcare professionals should pay more attention to adherence to CR in this population and use a variety of interventions to improve it.
