Clinical Scorecard: Analysis of Latent Profiles and Determinants of Kinesiophobia in Young and Middle-Aged Individuals with Coronary Heart Disease
At a Glance
Category Detail
Condition Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) Key Mechanisms Kinesiophobia affecting exercise compliance and rehabilitation outcomes Target Population Young and middle-aged individuals aged 18–59 years with CHD Care Setting Tertiary medical facility
Key Highlights
Three classifications of kinesiophobia identified: low, moderate, and high kinesiophobia types Educational level, stent quantity, exercise self-efficacy, social support, and fatigue influence kinesiophobia Kinesiophobia prevalence in CHD patients ranges from 20% to 87.20% Targeted interventions are necessary to address individual kinesiophobia traits Cardiac rehabilitation is crucial for improving outcomes in CHD patients Guideline-Based Recommendations
Diagnosis
Utilize the Fear of Activity in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease (Fact-CAD) for assessment Management
Implement tailored intervention strategies based on kinesiophobia profiles Monitoring & Follow-up
Regularly assess kinesiophobia levels and related factors during rehabilitation Risks
Increased kinesiophobia can lead to reduced exercise compliance and poorer rehabilitation outcomes Patient & Prescribing Data
Young and middle-aged individuals with CHD
Focus on enhancing exercise self-efficacy and social support to mitigate kinesiophobia
Clinical Best Practices
Conduct latent profile analysis to identify kinesiophobia classifications Encourage patient education to alleviate fears regarding physical activity Promote social support networks to enhance exercise participation Related Resources & Content
