Impacts of Treatment Modalities on Physical Activity After First Acute Myocardial Infarction in Jordan.

CONCLUSION: The study showed that patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention had better mean steps count and mean stepping time per day between weeks 2 and 6 after hospitalization in comparison with other treatment modalities. These findings could be used for development of effective intervention in the future. Further research using different research methods such as longitudinal studies among different cultures to confirm the finding of this study is recommended. PMID: 31593066 [PubMed - in process]
