Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a structured intervention aimed at improving the clinical outcomes for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This systematic review assesses how well different types of CR, such as high-intensity interval training (HIIT), moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT), Nordic walking (NW), and home-based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR), improve exercise capacity, quality of life, and lower death and illness rates. The objective is to assess the effectiveness of cardiovascular rehabilitation programs in enhancing clinical outcomes for patients diagnosed with CAD.

- * A study at "Victor Babes" Hospital included 180 patients, revealing that those with both CHF and COPD experienced the greatest HRQoL deterioration, reflected in longer hospital stays and lower initial oxygen saturation levels.
- * Notably, significant improvements in HRQoL were observed three months after discharge across all groups, highlighting the importance of targeted recovery programs that cater to the complications arising from the coexistence of these chronic conditions. *
