Nurses only and multidisciplinary teams were the most frequent professionals to provide education , and most educational interventions were delivered postdischarge .
Psychoeducational interventions were generally effective at reducing smoking and admissions for patients with ACS .
Culturally appropriate health education , self-management educational interventions , group medical visits and psychoeducational interventions were generally effective for patients with T2DM .
Results indicate that there is a body of current evidence about the efficacy of health education , its content and delivery methods for patients with ACS or T2DM .
OBJECTIVES This umbrella review aim ed to identify the current evidence on health education-related interventions for patients with acute coronary syndrome ( ACS ) or type two diabetes mellitus ( T2DM ) ; identify the educational content , delivery methods , intensity , duration and setting required .
The purpose was to provide recommendations for educational interventions for high-risk patients with both ACS and T2DM .
Rehabilitation outcomes following percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).
This prospect i ve study evaluated the effect of an individualized , comprehensive , home-based cardiac rehabilitation program combining exercise training with risk factor modification and psychosocial counseling on risk factors , psychological well-being , functional capacity , and work resumption in 99 post-percutaneous coronary interventions ( PCI ) patients r and omized to control ( st and ard care plus telephone follow-up  , n=49 ) or intervention ( individualized , comprehensive , home-based cardiac rehabilitation , n=50 ) groups . Data were collected at time 1 ( T(1 ) ) during hospital admission , time 2 ( T(2 ) ) approximately 2 months post-PCI , and time 3 ( T(3 ) ) approximately 12 months post-PCI . Results suggest that the allocation to an individualized , comprehensive , home-based cardiac rehabilitation program provided more advantageous outcomes . At both follow-ups , the intervention group showed within-group improvement in serum cholesterol levels ( P<0.02 ; P<0.01 ) and exercise participation ( P<0.001 ; P<0.001 ) with differences in exercise participation favoring the intervention group ( P<0.01 ) at T(2 ) . Repeated measures ANOVA showed significant improvements over time in body mass index ( BMI ) ( P<0.01 ) , psychological well-being ( P<0.001 ) , and functional capacity ( P<0.001 ) for both groups . More patients in the intervention group had returned to work at T(2 ) ( P<0.001 ) and did so more quickly ( P<0.01 ) . These findings suggest that an individualized , comprehensive , home-based cardiac rehabilitation program improves risk factor profiles and work resumption patterns for patients following PCI
