Abstract
Older adults have distinctive health challenges that are relevant to the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases and are potentially modifiable by cardiac rehabilitation. Cardiac rehabilitation in older adults provides opportunity to assess sarcopenia, obesity, osteoporosis, frailty, falls risk, arthritis, cognition, special senses, self-efficacy, depression, social support, polypharmacy, and nutritional adequacy. Therefore, broadening standard assessments to include these domains can help detect modifiable vulnerabilities and inform therapeutic priorities.
