Abstract
Purpose: Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is a strong predictor of mortality. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) increases CRF measured by peakVO2 by an average of 2±3.3ml/kg/min according to historical data. Progress in interventional and surgical procedures as well as advances in medical therapies and CR training protocols may result in optimization of CRF gain after a phase 2 CR program. Because data on CRF in contemporary patient populations undergoing CR are scarce, we here report CRF data from our latest patient cohort.
