OC07_01 Association Between Physical Dependence and Cognitive Impairment in Phase 1 of Cardiac Rehabilitation Program
SPECIAL;The cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in phase I are recommended to prevent the complications of prolonged repose syndrome, return to daily life activities and reduce hospitalization time. As part of the integral evaluation of the patients during phase I, the Mini Mental State Questionnaire is performed to establish the cognitive level of the patient and also the Barthel Index, which indicates the level of independence of some basic activities of daily life like.The hospitalization process has consequences on the patient as the physical dependence in activities of daily living, and may be accompanied by cognitive signifi...

OC07_02 Feasibility of Practice Nurses Screening for Atrial Fibrillation Using Smartphone ECG During Flu-Vaccinations
Stroke risk is high in people with unknown atrial Fibrillation (AF). Screening identifies unknown AF in 1.5% of people ≥65 years. Although recommended in international guidelines, screening is not routinely implemented. Incorporating screening with flu-vaccination presents an ideal opportunity to detect AF in large numbers in a medical setting. (Source: CVD Prevention and Control)

OC07_04 Decreasing Length of Hospital Stay Following a First Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) Aligns With Increasing Age of First AMI and Improved Case Fatality in Oxfordshire, a Region of England: A Database Study, 1975 to 2010
Reducing the length of stay for admitted hospital care has been supported in the UK National Health Service to release capacity, minimise waiting times, maximise productivity and improve patient experience. However, shortening hospital stay should only occur if it leads to improved outcomes, in particular decreases in case fatality. (Source: CVD Prevention and Control)

OC08_03 Cost-Effectiveness of a Smokeless Tobacco Campaign in India
Evidence from high-income countries has shown tobacco control mass media campaigns to be cost-effective in reducing tobacco consumption, but similar evidence from low-income countries is rarely reported. An evaluation of the Government of India ’s 2009 smokeless tobacco campaign, titled Surgeon, which ran nationally on television and radio for 5 weeks, provided an opportunity to test its cost-effectiveness.
