Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in individuals with heartfailure (HF). Individuals with HF and AF may have a reduced functional capacity and quality of life (QoL) which leads to hospital admission and burden on clinical services. Evidence supported the effect of exercise training in individuals with HF.
This 2023 Cochrane review of 60 randomized trials in 8728 heartfailure patients, confirms the benefits of participation in exercise-based cardiacrehabilitation (ExCR), including reduced risk of hospitalization and a clinically meaningful improvement in health-related quality of life.
Circulation: HeartFailure, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Exercise training can promote cardiacrehabilitation, thereby reducing cardiovascular disease mortality and hospitalization rates.
This study aims to evaluate the association of body composition with cardiovascular outcomes and allcause mortality in patients with CAD.Methods and ResultsBody composition was obtained via bioelectrical impedance analysis from 1291 patients with CAD before starting cardiacrehabilitation.
Taub, MD : She is a Professor of Medicine, board-certified cardiologist, and founding director of the Step Family Foundation CardiacRehabilitation and Wellness Center at UC San Diego. Fatima Cody Stanford, MD: Practices and teaches at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
IntroductionComprehensive, hybrid cardiacrehabilitation (CR) models have been scantly investigated in heartfailure (HF) populations, particularly in low-resource settings. 152 HF patients (NYHA class II or III) will be recruited consecutively, and randomly assigned using permuted blocks; allocation will be concealed.
