Why the study?
Does cardiac rehabilitation improve exercise capacity in Type 2 diabetic patients with coronary artery disease?
Does cardiac rehabilitation improve exercise capacity in Type 2 diabetic patients with coronary artery disease?
Cardiac rehabilitation yields lower exercise capacity benefits in Type 2 diabetic patients post-ischemic event, with the response influenced by blood glucose levels.
Cardiac rehabilitation referral in T2D should not change yet; hypothesis-generating for glucose influence on exercise capacity gains.
The benefit of cardiac rehabilitation, after an acute ischaemic heart event, in exercise capacity is significantly lower in Type 2 diabetic patients. The response to cardiac rehabilitation in those with diabetes appears to be influenced by blood glucose levels.
