Cardiac rehabilitation (rehab) is a medically supervised programme for people who have had or have:
- a heart attack;
- angioplasty or coronary artery bypass grafting for coronary heart disease;
- a heart valve repair or replacement;
- a heart or lung transplant;
- angina;
- heart failure.
The goal
To help you return to an active life and lower the risk of further heart problems.
What it includes
A team of specialists draws up a plan with:
- exercise training;
- education on heart-healthy living;
- counselling to reduce stress.
You learn to reduce your risk factors: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, depression and diabetes — and also being overweight or obese, smoking and not exercising.
