Article Synopsis
- The study examines how ambulatory cardiac rehabilitation (ACR) affects anxiety, depression, and quality of life (QoL) in patients with different heart issues.
- Patients included those recovering from acute coronary syndrome, elective surgeries, and other cardiac conditions, with assessments taken before and after a 3-month ACR program.
- Results showed that ACR significantly reduced anxiety and depression, and improved QoL in most areas, suggesting that ACR is beneficial for mental and physical health in cardiac patients, despite some exceptions.
