- Aims The quality registry SWEDEHEART covers data across the patient pathway after an acute myocardial infarction (MI), from hospital care to secondary prevention. Although cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is strongly recommended after an MI, there is still heterogeneity regarding standards, uptake, and adherence rates. The aim of the SWEDEHEART-CR registry is to provide continuous information on secondary prevention and CR performance to support the audit and development of evidence-based practice. To facilitate quality improvement and research initiatives, a description of the characteristics and development of the SWEDEHEART-CR registry is needed. Methods and results The SWEDEHEART-CR registry starts with data obtained during hospital care and then collects data at out-patient visits 2 months and 1-year after discharge, and at start and end of an exercise-based CR programme. The registry data covers comorbidities, biochemistry, blood pressure, anthropometric variables, medication, psychosocial- and lifestyle variables, readmissions, patient-reported outcome measures, attendance in CR-related programmes, and physical fitness variables. Over 100 000 patients with MI have been included in the SWEDEHEART-CR registry since its start in 2005. From initially covering 35 centres (47%) and 2200 patients annually (27%), SWEDEHEART-CR has developed to a nation-wide registry with 75 centres (100%) and 8800 patients annually (80%) in 2020. Conclusion The SWEDEHEART-CR registry includes a high proportion of the national MI population entering a CR programme and is a powerful tool for quality audit, improvement, and research. The registry provides insights into the characteristics, treatment, and outcomes of evidence-based secondary preventive practice, ultimately leading to better cardiovascular health.

- BACKGROUND: Around 5-10% of all myocardial infarction patients have non-obstructive coronary arteries. Studies investigating the importance of follow-up and achievement of conventional secondary prevention targets in these patients are lacking.METHODS: In this analysis from the SWEDEHEART registry, we investigated 5830 myocardial infarction patients with non-obstructive coronary arteries (group 1) and 54,637 myocardial infarction patients with significant coronary artery disease (≥50% stenosis; group 2). Multivariable- and propensity score-adjusted statistics were used to assess the reduction in the one-year risk of major adverse events associated with prespecified secondary preventive measures: participation in follow-up at 6-10 weeks after the hospitalization; achievement of secondary prevention targets (blood pressure and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in the target ranges, non-smoking, participation in exercise training).RESULTS: Patients in group 1 were less often followed up compared to patients in group 2 and less often achieved any of the secondary prevention targets. Participation in the 6-10 week follow-up was associated with a 3-20% risk reduction in group 1, similar as for group 2 according to interaction analysis. The improvement in outcome in group 1 was mainly mediated by achieving target range low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (24-32% risk reduction) and, to a smaller extent, by participation in exercise training (10-23% risk reduction).CONCLUSIONS: Selected secondary preventive measures are associated with prognostic benefit in myocardial infarction patients with non-obstructive coronary arteries, in particular achieving target range low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Our results indicate that these patients should receive similar follow-up as myocardial infarction patients with significant coronary stenoses.
