Selection criteria for referral to cardiac rehabilitation centers

Current guidelines state that cardiac rehabilitation is indicated after the acute phase of major cardiovascular diseases and interventions; on the other hand implementation of these indications is difficult because of several barriers, i.e. the number of patients per year with an indication exceeds by far the accommodation offer of cardiac rehabilitation centers; the demand for access to cardiac rehabilitation from acute cardiac care hospitals is low because the attention is focused on the acute phase of cardiac diseases. The present Consensus Document describes the changes in clinical epidemiology of the main cardiovascular diseases, showing that complications are increasingly more frequent in the postacute phase, especially in the setting of myocardial infarction. The Joint ANMCO/IACPR-GICR Committee defines priority criteria based on clinical risk for admission to cardiac rehabilitation centers as inpatients. This Consensus Document represents, therefore, an important step forward in the search for continuity of care in high-risk patients during the post-acute phase

Visiones imperiales y profecía. Roma, España, Nuevo Mundo

Con autorización de la editorial para este libro.Cristóbal Colón se proclamó mensajero enviado por Dios para anunciar «el nuevo cielo e tierra que hasía Nuestro Señor escriviendo San Juan el Apocalipsis» y afirmando que más que mapas y astrolabios, le había guiado la profecía de Isaías. Entre España, el Nuevo Mundo y Roma, donde todo se jugaba, este libro reflexiona sobre la ideología profética e imperial de Fernando el Católico suscitada a partir de la conquista de Granada y del descubrimiento de las nuevas tierras americanas. Lo hace en una perspectiva global, que ensancha notablemente la geografía del profetismo renacentista, reflexionando sobre los nexos entre profetismo cristiano, judío y musulmán y poniendo en diálogo a historiadores del arte, de la literatura y de la cultura.La publicación se han realizado en el marco del proyecto financiado por el European Research Council bajo el 7º Programa Marco de la Unión Europea (FP7/2007-2013) / ERC Grant Agreement nº 323316, proyecto CORPI, «Conversion, Overlapping Religiosities, Polemics, Interaction.

A MASSIFICAÇÃO NO TROFÉU SÃO PAULO DE GINÁSTICA ARTÍSTICA: TEORIA OU PRÁTICA?

Muito se discute na Pedagogia do Esporte sobre as condutas para o melhor encaminhamento do processo de competição e em qual idade do praticante isto seria mais adequado para garantir seu desenvolvimento pleno. Pensando nisto, a Federação Paulista de Ginástica criou o Troféu São Paulo (TSP), para estimular a prática da Ginástica Artística (GA) em todos os níveis e faixas etárias. Mas será que o TSP atende a essa função? Para responder tal indagação, elaboramos uma entrevista semi-estruturada com questões abertas e aplicamos aos técnicos participantes deste torneio. Os técnicos versaram opiniões sobre o TSP, objetivos e critérios para participação no mesmo. As respostas foram analisadas através da Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin (2004). Constatamos que, em geral, os técnicos concordam que o evento é importante para os ginastas pela forma de elaboração do regulamento, ao oferecer progressão de níveis, e por premiar todos os participantes. Não permitir a participação de ginastas que não realizam séries completas ou séries nos quatro aparelhos é escolha dos técnicos, uma vez que o regulamento não faz esta restrição. Restou-nos a dúvida: seria apenas o modelo de competição ou os treinadores também contribuem para impedir a massificação do TSP

The Changing Landscape for Stroke\ua0Prevention in AF: Findings From the GLORIA-AF Registry Phase 2

Background GLORIA-AF (Global Registry on Long-Term Oral Antithrombotic Treatment in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation) is a prospective, global registry program describing antithrombotic treatment patterns in patients with newly diagnosed nonvalvular atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke. Phase 2 began when dabigatran, the first non\u2013vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC), became available. Objectives This study sought to describe phase 2 baseline data and compare these with the pre-NOAC era collected during phase 1. Methods During phase 2, 15,641 consenting patients were enrolled (November 2011 to December 2014); 15,092 were eligible. This pre-specified cross-sectional analysis describes eligible patients\u2019 baseline characteristics. Atrial fibrillation disease characteristics, medical outcomes, and concomitant diseases and medications were collected. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results Of the total patients, 45.5% were female; median age was 71 (interquartile range: 64, 78) years. Patients were from Europe (47.1%), North America (22.5%), Asia (20.3%), Latin America (6.0%), and the Middle East/Africa (4.0%). Most had high stroke risk (CHA2DS2-VASc [Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age  6575 years, Diabetes mellitus, previous Stroke, Vascular disease, Age 65 to 74 years, Sex category] score  652; 86.1%); 13.9% had moderate risk (CHA2DS2-VASc = 1). Overall, 79.9% received oral anticoagulants, of whom 47.6% received NOAC and 32.3% vitamin K antagonists (VKA); 12.1% received antiplatelet agents; 7.8% received no antithrombotic treatment. For comparison, the proportion of phase 1 patients (of N = 1,063 all eligible) prescribed VKA was 32.8%, acetylsalicylic acid 41.7%, and no therapy 20.2%. In Europe in phase 2, treatment with NOAC was more common than VKA (52.3% and 37.8%, respectively); 6.0% of patients received antiplatelet treatment; and 3.8% received no antithrombotic treatment. In North America, 52.1%, 26.2%, and 14.0% of patients received NOAC, VKA, and antiplatelet drugs, respectively; 7.5% received no antithrombotic treatment. NOAC use was less common in Asia (27.7%), where 27.5% of patients received VKA, 25.0% antiplatelet drugs, and 19.8% no antithrombotic treatment. Conclusions The baseline data from GLORIA-AF phase 2 demonstrate that in newly diagnosed nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients, NOAC have been highly adopted into practice, becoming more frequently prescribed than VKA in Europe and North America. Worldwide, however, a large proportion of patients remain undertreated, particularly in Asia and North America.
