Cardiac RehabilitationAka: Activity after Myocardial Infarction
- Protocol: Activity restrictions
- Gradually increase activity over 6-8 weeks post-MI
- Return to work by 8 weeks after MI
- Activity program may start by 3-4 weeks after MI
- Sexual activity restarted at 4-6 weeks after MI
- Efficacy
- Swedish Study of Cardiac Rehabilitation
- Patients were over 65 with MI (n=192)
- Rehabilitation program instituted
- Education and counseling
- Home visits
- Low intensity Exercise
- Effect
- Reduced re-hospitalization
- First 3 months (13% versus 29%)
- First year (32% versus 47%)
- Reduced unplanned ER visits
- ER visits were more appropriate in Rehab group
- Reduced re-hospitalization
- Reference
- Swedish Study of Cardiac Rehabilitation
