Worksite-based cardiovascular risk factor screening and management represent a largely untapped strategy for optimizing risk factor control.Methods: In a 2-phase collaborative demonstration project between Alberta Health Services (AHS) and the Alberta Newsprint Company (ANC), ANC employees were offered cardiovascular risk factor screening and management. Screening was performed at the worksite by AHS nurses, who collected baseline history, performed automated blood pressure measurement and point-of-care testing for lipids and A1c, and calculated 10-year Framingham risk. Employees with a Framingham risk score of ≥10% and uncontrolled blood pressure, dyslipidemia, or smoking were offered 6 months of pharmacist case management to optimize their risk factor control.Results: In total, 87 of 190 (46%) employees volunteered to undergo cardiovascular risk factor screening. Mean age was 44.5±11.9 years, 73 (83.9%) were male, 14 (16.1%) had hypertension, 4 (4.6%) had diabetes, 12 (13.8%) were current smokers, and 9 (10%) had dyslipidemia. Of 36 employees with an estimated Framingham risk score of ≥10%, 21 (58%) agreed to receive case management and 15 (42%) attended baseline and 6-month follow-up case management visits. Statist

27. Heart Disease, Physical Activity Trajectories, and Gender

Author

Blanchard, Chris, Reid, Robert, Morrin, Louise, Pipe, Andrew, and Plotnikoff, Ronald C.

Abstract

Objectives: The first purpose was to identify distinct physical activity growth trajectories for light and moderate to vigorous physical activity (PA) after hospitalization for heart disease (i.e., to identify sub-groups of patients whose PA trajectories are similar to each other, but different from patients in other PA trajectory groups). The second purpose was to determine if gender predicted sub-group membership for each PA intensity. Design and Setting: Participants (N=554) completed a questionnaire in hospital and at 2, 6, 12, and 24 months after hospitalization. Results: Latent class growth curve analyses showed two classes of patients emerged for light intensity PA that were labeled Inactive Maintainers-Light (72.2% of the sample) and Low Active Maintainers-Light (27.8%). For moderate to vigorous PA, 87.8% of the sample was labeled Inactive Maintainers (i.e., remained inactive for the entire 2-year period), whereas 12.2% were labeled Active Maintainers (i.e., remained active for the 2-year period). Gender did not predict light intensity PA group membership, however, females were significantly more likely to be in the Inactive Maintainer for moderate to vigorous PA compared to males (odds ratio = 3.47). Conclusion: The association between gender and PA trajectories after hospitalization for heart disease may be intensity dependent., The Health & Fitness Journal of Canada, Vol 8 No 1 (2015)

46. Does Protection Motivation Theory Explain Exercise Intentions and Behavior During HomeBased Cardiac Rehabilitation

Author

Blanchard, Chris M., Reid, Robert D., Morrin, Louise I., McDonnell, Lisa, McGannon, Kerry, Rhodes, Ryan E., Spence, John C., and Edwards, Nancy

Abstract

Home-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs have been shown to be effective in increasing exercise capacity, which is a significant predictor of longevity for patients with heart disease. However, adherence to these programs has been problematic. Therefore, it is important to identify key theoretical correlates of exercise for these patients that can be used to inform the development of behavioral interventions to help tackle the adherence problem. The purpose of this study was to determine whether protection motivation theory (PMT) explained significant variation in exercise intentions and behavior in patients receiving home-based CR.

47. Reducing the Care-Gap in the Vascular Disease Management in Alberta.

Author

Morrin, Louise

Abstract

The article outlines the Vascular Risk Reduction Initiative (VRRI) by the Alberta Health Services Cardiovascular Health and Stroke Strategic Clinical Network (SCN), Canada that aims to reduce the care-gap. The objectives of the VRRI are to reduce vascular risks through improved case finding and management, and thus reduce the number of deaths from vascular disease, cancer and chronic diseases, help people stay healthier, and address health inequalities.

Abstract

Background: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is actively promoted, but increasing PD utilisation is difficult. The objective of this study was to determine if the Starting dialysis on Time, At Home, on the Right Therapy (START) project was associated with an increase in the proportion of dialysis patients receiving PD within 6 months of starting therapy., Methods: Consecutive patients over age 18, with end-stage kidney failure, who started dialysis between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2018 in the province of Alberta, Canada. Programmes were provided with high-quality data about the individual steps in the process of care that drive PD utilisation that were used to identify problem areas, design and implement interventions to address them, and then evaluate whether those interventions had impact. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients receiving PD within 6 months of starting dialysis. Secondary outcomes included hospitalisation, death or probability of transfer to haemodialysis (HD). Interrupted time series methodology was used to evaluate the impact of the quality improvement initiative on the primary and secondary outcomes., Results: A total of 1962 patients started dialysis during the study period. Twenty-seven per cent of incident patients received PD at baseline, and there was a 5.4% (95% confidence interval: 1.5-9.2) increase in the use of PD in the province immediately after implementation. There were no changes in the rates of hospitalisation, death or probability of transfer to HD after the introduction of START., Conclusions: The approach used in the START project was associated with an increase in the use of PD in a setting with high baseline utilisation., Competing Interests: Declaration of conflicting interestsThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: This study is based in part on data provided by Alberta Health and Alberta Health Services.
