A Comparison Between Cardiac Telerehabilitation Program and Outpatient Hospital-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation Program for Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Surgery: A Review.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a prevalent and possibly fatal cardiovascular ailment, and it is treated surgically by coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The coronary arteries, which supply the heart with oxygen and nutrients, are the most commonly affected. Even though CABG is a frequently employed procedure to restore cardiac blood flow, prolonged rehabilitation is necessary for long-term success. For patients with heart disease, cardiac rehabilitation (CR) involves a comprehensive therapeutic approach. It consists of risk mitigation, regular exercise, health education, and efficient stress management. Information and communication technology is used in telerehabilitation (TR), a rehabilitation service that offers a flexible choice that improves self-management. This study examined novel approaches and effective intervention elements while comparing cardiac TR with center-based programs in terms of risk factor management, patient commitment, and satisfaction.
