Factors associated with return to work after acute myocardial infarction: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The incidence of young acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is increasing. Return-to-work is an important indicator for patients' psycho-social recovery. However, factors influencing return-to-work after AMI are yet to be determined.

Objective

To summary available evidence on rate and factors associated with return-to-work among AMI patients.

Methods

The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopes and two Chinese databases (CNKI and VIP) were searched from inception to October 3, 2023. Pooled rate of return-to-work (%) and odds ratio (OR) were calculated with Stata 17 software.

Results

Of 2403 records screened, 19 studies were included. Pooled rate of return-to-work at 3, 6, 12, and 24 and above months after AMI was 74%, 87%, 87%, 80% respe
