In a study led by a researcher from Detroit-based Henry Ford Health and other scientists based around the world, data from 2008 to 2024 from 12 studies across the U.S., the U.K., Australia, the Netherlands, Canada, Italy and Japan was analyzed to determine the effect cardiac rehabilitation has on patients with cardiovascular disease.
The analysis found that participating in a cardiac rehabilitation program reduced all cause and cardiovascular mortality, and improved functional ability in patients with cardiovascular disease compared to patients who did not participate in cardiac rehabilitation.
“These results support the utilization of cardiac rehabilitation as a critical element in the management of further secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases,” the authors wrote.
