Article Synopsis
- Clinical practice guidelines recommend optimal medical therapy (OMT) for patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD), focusing on lifestyle changes, medications, and exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR).
- The Pre-START study is a pilot study aimed at assessing the efficacy and safety of CR specifically for Japanese patients with SIHD who have not undergone revascularization, including 36 outpatient CR sessions within 5 months.
- The primary goal is to measure changes in health-related quality of life and exercise capacity over 6 months, providing crucial data for future studies on CR in SIHD patients.
