Key result
e-Health interventions for secondary prevention of coronary artery disease improved medication adherence and modifiable risk factors, though wide variability in components and outcomes precluded meta-analysis.
Why the study?
Electronic health interventions are emerging as an alternative model for CAD secondary prevention, but the effectiveness of different delivery modes and components needed evaluation.
Do e-Health secondary prevention programmes improve adherence to treatment, modifiable CAD risk factors, and psychosocial outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease?
Systematic Review (n=3,654)
Do e-Health secondary prevention programmes improve adherence to treatment, modifiable CAD risk factors, and psychosocial outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease?
e-Health interventions, including m-Health and web-based platforms, show promise in improving medication adherence and modifiable risk factors in the secondary prevention of CAD.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
e-Health CAD programs may aid adherence and risk factor control; leaves open optimal components and delivery modes.
Brørs et al. (2019) conducted a systematic review in Coronary artery disease (n=3,654). e-Health secondary prevention programmes (m-Health, web-based, or combination) vs. Traditional secondary prevention care was evaluated on Adherence to treatment, modifiable CAD risk factors, and psychosocial outcomes. e-Health interventions for secondary prevention of coronary artery disease improved medication adherence and modifiable risk factors, though wide variability in components and outcomes precluded meta-analysis.
