Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation for coronary heart disease

“Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation is an inexpensive and cost-effective intervention, but right now it's underfunded and unprioritized. We want this option to be available to everyone. This new research shows you don't even have to go into a rehab center to benefit – you can participate from home and still see the benefits.”

“This review confirms that exercise is a great tool for improving the overall health of people with coronary heart disease. By adding newer studies to this update, we're able to see that digital programs work as well as in-person programmes, which really changes the game here. These approaches may help us reach people who cannot attend traditional center-based services.”

“These results show that everyone with specific heart conditions can benefit from cardiac rehabilitation. It offers health gains for a broad group of people with heart problems, regardless of age, gender, or baseline health. This demonstrates that this form of prevention is valuable for all.”
