Supports broader cardiac rehabilitation access; leaves open causal confirmation in randomized trials.
Does cardiac rehabilitation improve clinical outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease?
Relative Risk: 0.87 (95% CI 0.75–0.99)
Cardiac rehabilitation is a highly effective, guideline-recommended multimodal intervention that significantly improves morbidity, mortality, and quality of life in patients with cardiovascular disease.
Bellmann et al. (2020) conducted a review in Cardiovascular disease. Cardiac rehabilitation vs. Usual care was evaluated on Overall mortality (RR 0.87, 95% CI 0.75-0.99). Cardiac rehabilitation reduces overall mortality (RR 0.87) and cardiovascular mortality (RR 0.74) compared to usual care in patients with cardiovascular disease.
