Adherence to Home Based Cardiac Rehabilitation

Scane, Kerseri 27 November 2013 (has links)
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is recommended for those living with heart disease, however adherence is suboptimal. The home program (HP) model of care is as clinically effective as traditional programs (TP), however little information exists about the HP’s effect on adherence. The objectives of this thesis were to 1) compare adherence of patients in a HP and TP model of CR. 2) To characterize self-regulatory self-efficacy (SR-SE) in a CR HP and 3) to explore the reasons for non-completion of a HP. Study 1 showed adherence to be similar between the TP and HP. Study 2 showed that SR-SE was high throughout the HP for completers, but dropped in those who did not complete the program. The HP is a good alternative for those unable to attend a TP; however those with low SR-SE may require further interventions to help them complete their program.

Att öka attraktiviteten genomförnyelse av offentliga rum : -En fallstudie om Råslätt centrum, Jönköping / To increase attractiveness through renewal ofpublic spaces : -A case study of the centre of Råslätt, Jönköping

Sarii, Nora, Karlsson, Anna January 2016 (has links)
Purpose: Råslätt is a residential neighborhood that is part of the Swedish “million homeprogram” (1965-1975). The area consists almost entirely of rental apartments inprefabricated concrete buildings of 6-8 floors. Unemployment rates are high and thearea is also highly segregated. Because of this, Råslätt has a bad reputation.The goal of this study is to examine the parameters of the physical, public space thatcan contribute to a more attractive residential area and based on the findings design aproposal that will be presented by sketches and a picture. Method: The methods used are primarily document analysis and observations. Inaddition, an interview with a professional area manager has been implemented. Thefinal sketch has been made with 3D-modeling software. Findings: The area's center buildings have been analyzed using various theories andfrom these concluded a number of parameters that are important for this residential areato be attractive. Using these parameters, a proposal has been designed with 3Dmodelingsoftware and presented as overview maps and a picture of how the area couldlook like. Implications: Through a proposal of changes in the physical planning, theattractiveness of the area and the social mix could be improved. Improvements thatcould enhance the attractiveness have been developed and are as follows: more sittingpossibilities, better accessibility, more interesting architecture, larger focus onaesthetics, more planned green space in the center, attractive new housing in the citycenter, to better link the different ground levels and an increased number of focus pointsfor visual experiences.For further research in the area, it could be interesting to investigate what is alreadybeing done in new construction projects to avoid problems that “the million homeprogram” resulted in, and to come up with further proposals on how to improve thework at the new projects. It could also be interesting to examine the redevelopmentproposals based upon economic and ecological sustainability. Limitations: The focus has been at the center of the buildings due to our basic theorythat it is possible to improve the attractiveness of the area by only focusing on publicspace. This is also to avoid the negative effects of a rising social status in a residentialarea (gentrification) whenever possible. Economic aspects have also been disregardedin this report. / Syfte: Råslätt är ett bostadsområde som ingår i det svenska miljonprogrammet.Området består nästan uteslutande av hyresrätter i prefabricerade betonghus med 6-8våningar. Arbetslösheten är utbredd och det är mycket segregerat i området. Områdethar även dåligt rykte på grund av detta.Målet med det här examensarbetet är att undersöka vilka parametrar i den fysiska,offentliga miljön som kan bidra till ett mer attraktivt bostadsområde och utefter dessautforma ett förslag som redovisas med skisser och en bild. Metod: De metoder som använts är i första hand dokumentanalys och observationer.Dessutom har en intervju med en yrkesverksam förvaltare och områdeschefgenomförts. Den avslutande skissen har sedan gjorts i ett 3D-modelleringsprogram. Resultat: Områdets centrumbebyggelse har analyserats med hjälp av olika teorier ochpå det sättet har man kommit fram till ett antal parametrar som är viktiga för attbostadsområdet ska vara attraktivt. Med hjälp av dessa parametrar har ett förslagutformats i ett 3D-modelleringsprogram och redovisats som översiktskartor och en bildpå hur området skulle kunna se ut. Konsekvenser: Genom ett förslag på förändringar i den fysiska planeringen kanområdets attraktivitet och den sociala blandningen förbättras. De konkreta förslagensom skulle kunna förbättra attraktiviteten har tagits fram är: Fler sittplatser, bättretillgänglighet, intressantare arkitektur, mer fokus på estetik, fler planerade grönytor icentrum, nya attraktiva bostäder i centrum, större koppling mellan olika marknivåer ochfler fokuspunkter för visuella upplevelser.För att forska vidare i ämnesområdet skulle det kunna vara intressant att utreda vad somredan görs vid nyproduktion för att undvika de problem som miljonprogrammetmedförde samt att komma med ytterligare förslag på hur man kan förbättra arbetet vidnybyggnation. Det skulle även kunna vara intressant att undersöka ettombyggnadsförslag utifrån ekonomiska och ekologiska hållbarhetsaspekter. Begränsningar: Fokus har legat på centrumbebyggelsen på grund av att vårgrundläggande tes är att det går att förbättra attraktiviteten i ett område genom att barafokusera på det offentliga rummet. Detta också för att undvika de negativa effekternaav den sociala statushöjningen av ett bostadsområde (gentrifiering) i största möjligamån. Ekonomiska aspekter har även bortsetts ifrån i den här rapporten.
