Key result
Cardiac telerehabilitation has the potential to increase the low cardiac rehabilitation participation rate in Japan and improve secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
Why the study?
Outpatient cardiac rehabilitation participation in Japan is estimated to be very low, and cardiac telerehabilitation may serve as a remote solution to overcome existing barriers.
