Summary

Treatment of chronic heart failure requires multidisciplinary approaches with a recognized role for cardiac rehabilitation. Rehabilitation helps to improve patient's functional, decrease morbidity and mortality, decrease rehospitalization rate, thereby reducing costs of this disease. After recovery from the acute phase of cardiac infarction, patients admitted to the rehabilitation center will follow the usual rehabilitation program during the hospitalization period. This step precludes outpatient follow-up period in our day hospital, in accordance with their physicians and cardiologists who manage the monitoring. The study INCARD (Insuffisance Cardiaque en Readaptation Durable) will be developed to evaluate the benefits of a sustainable rehabilitation heart failure on patients treated optimally and educated during a follow-up period of 24 months. The main objective of the study will be to compare the benefits of rehabilitation between coronary (C) and non-coronary (NC) patients for each evaluation time point, periodically recorded
