Cardiac rehabilitation involving structured physical activity significantly reduces cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and post-myocardial infarction, with a relative risk reduction of 26% compared to no program.
After a heart attack, structured cardiac rehabilitation is not just optional but essential. It reduces your risk of dying from a heart event by about a quarter compared to no program. Start with moderate exercise, focus on consistency, and let your medical team guide the intensity. It is safe and highly effective.

Patienten, die an einem Rehabilitationsprogramm teilnahmen, hatten in einer Cochrane-Metaanalyse von 2016 [19] (n = 14 486 KHK-Patienten mit Z. n. Myokardinfarkt, PCI oder Bypassoperation) ein 26 % niedrigeres Risiko, an einem kardialen Ereignis zu versterben, als Patienten ohne dieses Programm (RR 0,74; 95 %-KI 0,64–0,86).
Why this rating
Based on a large Cochrane meta-analysis (n=14,486) and prospective observational studies.
