dc.description.abstractHall, Cortni K., An Analysis of Patient Health Outcomes in a Cardiac Rehabilitation Program. Master of Public Health, Epidemiology Track, December 2000, 48 pp., 11 tables, references, 30 titles. This study analyzed the coronary risk factor and quality of life outcome results of 55 patients who participated in a 12 week, phase II cardiac rehabilitation program. Baseline and post cardiac rehabilitation data were analyzed. There was an overall improvement of the coronary risk factor variables with significant improvements in functional capacity (p=0.001), diastolic blood pressure (p=0.01), total cholesterol (p=0.017), and LDL 9p=0.01). Significant improvements in the quality of life variables included physical function (p [less than] 0.01), role-physical (p [less than] 0.01), body pain (p [less than] 0.05), vitality (p [less than] 0.05), and social (p [less than] 0.05). There was also a significant finding of improved knowledge (p [less than] 0.01) after completion of phase II cardiac rehabilitation program.
