Key result
Cardiac rehabilitation significantly reduced the risk of all-cause mortality (adjusted OR 0.47) compared to non-attendance in patients with acute myocardial infarction.

Comparison
Cardiac rehabilitation delivered as a… vs Non-attenders.

Supports cardiac rehabilitation referral post-AMI for mortality reduction; extends observational meta-analysis but leaves modern RCT confirmation open.
Systematic Review (n=9,836)
Does modern multi-component cardiac rehabilitation reduce mortality, re-admission, and recurrent MI in adult patients with acute myocardial infarction compared to non-attendance?
Odds Ratio: 0.47 (95% CI 0.38–0.59)
Modern multi-component cardiac rehabilitation significantly reduces all-cause and cardiac mortality and improves quality of life in AMI patients, though it does not appear to reduce re-hospitalization or recurrent MI.
Sumner et al. (2017) conducted a systematic review in Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (n=9,836). Cardiac rehabilitation vs. No cardiac rehabilitation (non-attenders) was evaluated on All-cause mortality (OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.38-0.59). Cardiac rehabilitation significantly reduced the risk of all-cause mortality (adjusted OR 0.47) compared to non-attendance in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
