[Safety and efficacy of early discharge and outpatient rehabilitation after myocardial infarction for low-risk patients].

Background: Guidelines recommend early discharge and rehabilitation after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in low-risk patients. However, low risk is not established according to well-defined criteria and often it depends on subjective judgment. The aim of this real-life study is to confirm that early discharge is safe in patients at low risk according to selected criteria and subsequent outpatient rehabilitation is associated with clinical benefits.
