  • Examining Facilitators and Barriers to Cardiac Rehabilitation Adherence in a Low-Resource Setting in Latin America from Multiple Perspectives

    Open AccessDiana Marcela Rangel-Cubillos, Andrea Vanessa Vega-Silva et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is under-used, particularly in low-resource settings. There are few studies of barriers and facilitators to CR adherence in these settings, particularly considering multiple perspectives.

The mean age was 68.8 ± 8.5 years. A total of 31.9% of women had a high risk of falls, and 55% re…

A modified Spanish Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale (CRBS) has been translated, culturally adapted and validated in Colombia, however, the reliability remains to be evaluated. This study aimed to determine the internal …

    Open AccessAdriana Angarita Fonseca, Catherine Trask et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    Despite prevention efforts, such as the Canadian back pain mass media campaign, CBD prevalence has remained stable between 2007 and 2014. Tailored prevention and management of CBD should consider gender, age, and geographical differences. Further longitudinal studies could elucidate the temporal relationship between potentially modifiable risk factors such as physical activity and CBD
