Why the study?
Does home-based cardiac rehabilitation reduce hospitalizations and improve medication adherence and risk factor control in patients with cardiovascular disease compared to center-based cardiac rehabilitation?

Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Home-based cardiac rehabilitation is associated with fewer hospitalizations at 12 months compared to center-based rehabilitation in a diverse, high-risk cardiovascular disease population.
These findings suggest that HBCR in a demographically diverse population, including patients with high risk who are medically complex, was associated with fewer hospitalizations at 12 months compared with patients who participated in CBCR. This study strengthens the evidence supporting HBCR in previously understudied patient populations.
