Abstract

Limited research has been produced to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of providing physical therapy interventions in advanced CHF (aCHF) patients on circulatory support. The efficacy of Phase 1 Cardiac Rehab is well studied post myocardial infarction and cardiac surgery. The purpose of this project was to assess the safety and efficacy of implementing Phase 1 cardiac rehabilitation in an in-patient gym setting; the population studied included individuals with aCHF awaiting further intervention, most receiving inotropic support and/or mechanical circulatory assistive devices.
