dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to investigate long-term compliance to an exercise program among the graduates of Phase II CR program at three and six months following the discharge. 22 former cardiac patients participated in the study and each completed two questionnaires, one at three and one at six months after the discharge. Responses to the exercise related questions were used to test the hypothesis. Additionally, the risk factors and diet questions were discussed. There were no significant differences between the three- and six-month responses to the exercise related questions. This indicates that the compliance to the exercise program remained comparable at the two time periods. Positive effects regarding diet and stress handling were short lived, as the number of subjects who continued with a low-fat diet and handled stress well decreased with time following graduation from the CR program. | |
