Why the study?
Does comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation reduce total mortality in coronary artery disease patients after acute coronary syndrome and after coronary artery bypass grafting?
Does comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation reduce total mortality in coronary artery disease patients after acute coronary syndrome and after coronary artery bypass grafting?
Comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation effectively reduces total mortality in patients with coronary artery disease following acute coronary syndrome or bypass grafting in the era of contemporary evidence-based medicine.
May support cardiac rehabilitation referral after ACS or CABG; extends low-certainty observational data but leaves randomized confirmation open.
CROS II confirms the effectiveness of cardiac rehabilitation participation after acute coronary syndrome and after coronary artery bypass grafting in actual clinical practice by reducing total mortality under the conditions of current evidence-based coronary artery disease treatment. The data of CROS II, however, underscore the urgent need to define internationally accepted minimal standards for cardiac rehabilitation delivery as well as for scientific evaluation.
