Hybrid CR yielded comparable physical capacity gains to centre-based programs in post-MI women; leaves open need for RCTs to confirm adherence effects.
Does a hybrid model of cardiac rehabilitation improve physical capacity and adherence compared to standard centre-based rehabilitation in post-MI women?
A hybrid model of cardiac rehabilitation is as effective as a standard centre-based approach for improving physical capacity in post-MI women, while facilitating excellent adherence.
