Grace et al. (2005) conducted a cross-sectional in Cardiovascular disease (n=80). Home-based cardiac rehabilitation vs. Hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation was evaluated on Predictors of patient preference for home-based versus hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation (employment status) (OR 0.09, 95% CI 0.02-0.46, p=0.004). Working cardiac patients who perceived time constraints were significantly more likely to prefer home-based cardiac rehabilitation programs over hospital-based programs (employment status OR 0.09).
