Summary

In secondary prevention, the beneficial role of cardiac rehabilitation programs after myocardial infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass is now well established. The large majority of patients don't benefit from cardiac rehabilitation but for those who do, they usually follow an inhospital short health educational program with a sensibilisation to different coronary risk factors like smoking, overweight and inactivity. The impact of these inhospital short health educational programs combined to cardiac rehabilitation has never been totally evaluated, especially the impact on smoking cessation, weight loss and daily physical activity.

Therefore, the present study aims to evaluate the impact at one year on 400 consecutive patients' coronary risk profile of:

* an inhospital short health educational program alone
* an inhospital short health educational program combined to cardiac rehabilitation
* a cardiac rehabilitation program alone
