Key result
Cardiac rehabilitation is a Class 1 ACC guideline indication for the management of patients at risk of coronary artery disease, with heart failure, or following revascularization.

Does cardiac rehabilitation reduce mortality and recurrent MI in patients with coronary artery disease, heart failure, or post-revascularization?
Does cardiac rehabilitation reduce mortality and recurrent MI in patients with coronary artery disease, heart failure, or post-revascularization?
Cardiac rehabilitation is a safe, guideline-recommended intervention that significantly reduces mortality and recurrent MI, though it remains significantly underutilized in clinical practice.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports Class I cardiac rehabilitation referral to reduce mortality and recurrent MI; leaves open implementation research to address underutilization.
Cardiac rehabilitation is a class 1 indication by ACC guidelines. It involves different aspects of a patient's life who may be at risk of coronary artery disease. It extends to the management of patients with heart failure and those with post revascularization. We discuss briefly the different aspects of cardiac rehabilitation.
