Approach to cardiac rehabilitation

Department of Cardiology, Lidcombe Hospital, Lidcombe

To have a more structured approach towards the goals and objectives of cardiac rehabilitation, this paper discusses the interrelationship of the different factors which determine quality of life, who are the candidates for rehabilitation, the effectiveness of the various modes of intervention, the interface between the rehabilitation process and traditional medical modes of intervention and evaluation of outcome.
