Key result
A 21-session cardiac rehabilitation program in a postpartum patient with spontaneous coronary artery dissection improved grip strength from 0 to 7.5 kgf and 6-minute walk distance from 445 to 540 m.

Does cardiac rehabilitation improve physical abilities in a postpartum patient with spontaneous coronary artery dissection?
Cardiac rehabilitation may improve aerobic capacity, flexibility, and grip strength in postpartum patients recovering from spontaneous coronary artery dissection.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support cardiac rehabilitation for physical recovery in postpartum spontaneous coronary artery dissection; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Pinto et al. (2014) conducted a case report in Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) (n=1). Cardiac rehabilitation vs. Baseline (pre-intervention) was evaluated on Aerobic capacity, flexibility, and grip strength. A 21-session cardiac rehabilitation program in a postpartum patient with spontaneous coronary artery dissection improved grip strength from 0 to 7.5 kgf and 6-minute walk distance from 445 to 540 m.
