Availability of CR Globally Adawi et al., (accepted in principle) Nature Reviews: Cardiology
Global Availability of CR by Country Income Classification High-incomecountries: 68.0% (51/75 countries) • Middle-income countries: 28.2% (29/103 countries) • Low-income countries: 8.3% (3/36 countries) LMICs: 23.0% Globally:38.8%(83/214 countries) Turk-Adawi, K., Sarrafzadegan, N., & Grace, S.L. (accepted in principle). Nature Reviews: Cardiology.

CR delivery model for low-resource settings: A consensus statement • Primary Writing Panel • Grace, S.L., Turk-Adawi, K., Contractor, A., Atrey, A., Campbell, N., Derman, W., Ghisi, G.M.G., Hu, D., Lopez, F., Mendis, S.,(WHO) & Sarrafzadegan, N. • Secondary Writing Panel • Buckley, J., Akinroye, K. (WHF), Mola, A., Neubeck, L., Pogosova, N., & Rivas-Estany, E.
Literature Review: Search Strategy 1. Comprehensive search using Medline and Embase a- cardiac diseases b- rehabilitation c- LMICs 2. Grey literature search for reports, guidelines
Alternative Models of CR Delivery • Low-cost, accessible models: • Home-based (Dalaletal., 2010) • Community-based (Mandic et al., 2013) • Use of technology (evidence lacking, weak) • Internet-based (Munro et al., 2013) • telehealth, and mobile (Beatty et al., 2013)
Implementation Considerations • Developing national policies support CR provision • Randomized controlled trials of CR in LMICs • Provide cost-effectiveness data • CR part of integrated cardiology service • Expanding health human resources & service delivery • Integration of CR in the curricula of medical schools • Training of healthcare professionals (“Task-shifting”) • Increasing the hours of operation of existing programs
Next Steps • Literature review • Writing • 2ndary Panel review, revision • Submission to Nature Reviews: Cardiology • WCC 2016 – launch? • Field and feasibility testing in low-resource settings
