Exercise Prescriptions for Patients With Cardiovascular Disease

NCT05449652 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 47

Last updated 2022-07-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Physiotherapists are often confronted with patients with (elevated risk for) cardiovascular disease (CVD), even when this is not the primary indication for physiotherapy. Hence, physiotherapists should be able to provide evidence-based exercise advice to these patients, but this has not been assessed. The aim of this study was therefore to assess whether exercise prescriptions by physiotherapists to patients with CVD are in accordance with international recommendations.
