Does home-based cardiac rehabilitation improve exercise tolerance and quality of life compared to hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation in low-risk older patients after myocardial infarction?
Low-risk older patients after myocardial infarction
Home-based cardiac rehabilitation (Home-CR)
Hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation (Hosp-CR)
Exercise tolerance (TWC) and health-related quality of life (HRQL)patient reported
Home-based cardiac rehabilitation is a cost-effective alternative to hospital-based programs for low-risk older patients post-MI, offering prolonged benefits in exercise tolerance and quality of life.
Post-MI Hosp-CR and Home-CR are similarly effective in the short term and improve TWC and HRQL in each age group. However, with lower costs and more prolonged positive effects, Home-CR may be the treatment of choice in low-risk older patients.
