Cardiac Rehabilitation, Health Services Accessibility, Comparative StudyAbstract
In addition to the high prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD), regional iniquities in access to health services and underutilization of cardiac rehabilitation programs (CRP) are still significant in the Brazilian scenario. Objective:This study aimed to describe and compare barriers to the use of CRP in users of different health systems and levels of care in a Brazilian state. Methods: CRP participants and eligible inpatients and outpatients were matched by the health systems they used and responded to the Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale (CRBS). Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were used to compare barriers in health systems and levels of care, respectively. Results: One hundred and forty (87%) adults with heart disease participated in the study. The total mean score of barriers on the scale was 1.98 ± 0.48 and only differed between CRP participants and inpatients (p<0.05). Some access barriers, perceived needs and comorbidities/functional status were higher in the public services than in the private services (p <0.05). Lack of knowledge about CRP (3.75 ± 1.66) and lack of medical referral (2.32 ± 1.53) were the major barriers in the perceived needs domain, which had the highest average score in the sample (2.31 ± 0.71). Conclusions: Access barriers and perceived needs were greater among users of public services. Travel and work were greater barriers for CRP participants, while for inpatients and outpatients the largest were perceived needs. Therefore, the dissemination of CRP and implementation of strategies for eligible referral should be encouraged in both health systems and levels of care.
