Key result
Evolving cardiac rehabilitation models aim to boost patient participation to reduce mortality and improve function.
Why the study?
To summarize recent innovations in cardiac rehabilitation and examine its future direction as it adapts to the pressures of a global pandemic.
Does cardiac rehabilitation improve outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease?
Does cardiac rehabilitation improve outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease?
Cardiac rehabilitation continues to evolve with new models aimed at increasing participation, providing established mortality and functional benefits for patients with cardiovascular disease.
May support increased cardiac rehabilitation referral; leaves open optimal models for diverse populations.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To summarize recent innovations in cardiac rehabilitation and provide a view towards the future of cardiac rehabilitation as it adjusts to the pressures of a global pandemic. RECENT FINDINGS: Although cardiac rehabilitation has been shown to result in a mortality benefit, research continues to enumerate the benefits of cardiac rehabilitation to patient function and quality of life in a growing range of cardiovascular diseases. In addition, new methodologies and new models of cardiac rehabilitation have emerged with the goal of increasing patient referral and participation. SUMMARY: Cardiac rehabilitation continues to evolve and adapt to serve a growing and diversifying number of patients with cardiovascular disease with the goal of both decreasing mortality and improving patient function.
