Rates and patterns of participation in cardiac rehabilitation in Victoria
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cardiac rehabilitation improves functional status and quality of life after a myocardial infarction (AMI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). It is currently the recommendation of the National Heart Foundation that all such patients be referred for rehabilitation. Previous pilot data indicate that overall only 22% of patients participate in rehabilitation following a cardiac event, with rates varying according to diagnosis (AMI 14%, CABG 39%, PTCA 20%). Because these pilot data, were based on only 20% of all participating rehabilitation centres in Victoria, a more extensive study was conducted.
