Effectiveness of a nurse-led program of frequent educational meetings in achieving weight loss in patients with coronary artery disease: A prospective study from Poland
After 1 year and 6 follow-up visits, the average BMI of the entire population decreased significantly. BMI decreased in men and women, smokers and non-smokers, in patients with all levels of education, and in the subgroups with high stress and low physical activity. The strongest predictors of BMI reduction were high educational status and active smoking status.
