  5. ICCPR Purpose • To bring together national associations from around the world, to harmonize efforts in promoting cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation; • To work towards on-going consensus among national associations globally, regarding the internationally-common core elements and standards of cardiovascular disease prevention and rehabilitation; • To promote cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation as an essential, not optional service to ensure broader access to these proven services; • To support low and middle-income countries to establish and augment programs of cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation (e.g., technical support, sharing tools), adapted to local needs and conditions, and • To consider and communicate the emerging evidence base for cardiac rehabilitation, and support research in this field.

  10. Other Priority Areas where ICCPR Could Contribute Research to identify contextual factors in relation to KT to facilitate research use, including policy diffusion and readiness and capacity of health systems to accept and implement policies and programmes Research to define health system-related opportunities and barriers to access for rehabilitation, and develop feasible and integrated approaches to apply cost-effective CR/NCD interventions at all levels of health care Research to develop cost-effective approaches to deliver patient education, improve adherence and strengthen self-care

  11. ICCPR common goals to meeting objectives of the Global Forum (Alliance) Guidelines and standards to promote excellence in patient care, with a focus on secondary and tertiary preventive care Research in CVD prevention and rehabilitation Education and training for CR professionals
