Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of an innovative program of secondary cardiovascular prevention focused on patient empowerment. This program will be characterized by a blended interaction between healthcare workers and the patients: first, a face-to-face first encounter in-hospital for risk factors profiling, followed by remote interactions through a digital approach. The digital intervention is targeted at promoting the adoption and retention of virtuous behavior (e.g. smoking cessation, healthy eating habits, physical exercise, regular assumption of pharmacological therapies), improving cardiovascular risk factors control. Moreover, an exploratory endpoint will be investigated: the reduction of the residual coronary risk.

Conditions

  • Acute Myocardial Infarction

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Digital empowerment

The intervention will consist of a minimal interaction face-to-face before hospital discharge for risk factors profiling followed by actions for health empowerment, delivered through an ad-hoc developed web platform, which include: a) periodic delivery of email messages with links to educational, motivational and supportive materials for secondary prevention, b) access to a message box for questions and answers and c) possibility of video-calls with the preventive team.
