Cardiac Care

Q: What should I look for in a cardiac rehabilitation centre?

Look for medical supervision, personalised treatment plans, trained rehabilitation professionals, regular monitoring and a multidisciplinary approach. A good programme should be planned around the patient's condition rather than following a fixed exercise routine.

What is Cardiac Rehabilitation?

Cardiac rehabilitation is a medically supervised programme that helps people recover after heart condition, cardiac procedure, or heart surgery. It combines guided exercise, medical monitoring, nutrition support, education, and lifestyle management to help patients gradually return to daily activities. Cardiac rehab may be recommended after a heart attack, angioplasty, bypass surgery, valve surgery, or other cardiac conditions. The programme is planned according to the person's heart condition, physical ability, and recovery needs.

About Cardiac Care

How Cardiac Rehab Supports Recovery After Surgery?

After heart surgery, patients may experience tiredness, reduced stamina, weakness and difficulty returning to their normal routine. Cardiac rehabilitation provides a structured way to gradually increase physical activity while monitoring the person's response to exercise. It can also include education, nutrition, medication support and lifestyle changes. For people undergoing open heart surgery recovery, supervised rehabilitation can help them work towards improved mobility and physical function. After bypass surgery, cardiac rehab is an important part of ongoing recovery and secondary prevention.
