Summary

Introduction: Secondary prevention after acute myocardial infarction may include cardiac rehabilitation and lifestyle changes. Cardiac rehabilitation has mainly taken place in hospitals without coordination with primary healthcare. Motivational interviews have been shown to be effective as a means for change in patients after acute myocardial infarction. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a cardiac rehabilitation program with motivational interviews in patients discharged from hospital after acute myocardial infarction. Methods: Randomized clinical non-pharmacological trial. A minimum sample of 284 participants requiring cardiac rehabilitation after acute myocardial infarction in six primary healthcare centers. Participants will be randomized to cardiac rehabilitation with motivational interviews or normal standard of care. All secondary results will be evaluated at 1,3 and 6 months.

Conditions

• Myocardial Infarction, Acute

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Motivational interview	The new CR program with MI will be structured in 4 sessions and an optional fifth during the six months after discharge. The methodology of the MI sessions will follow the four phases logical sequence of MI proposed by Rollnick and Millner. 1) engage in a collaborative relationship, 2) focus on a particular change, 3) evoke intrinsic motivations for change, and 4) plan an immediate step for change
BEHAVIORAL	Active Comparator: Standard care group	All patients in the control group will receive a kit with informative material with the actions and procedures to follow (diet, physical activity, smoking cessation, and other recommendations about secondary prevention).
