Summary

This study examines the effectiveness of the cardiac rehabilitation program for stroke patients. The study will examine if patients with stroke, who receive cardiac rehabilitation in addition to their standard of care treatments, demonstrate improved recovery of function. It will also examine if these patients have reduced hospital readmission, reduced rate of recurrent stroke, and mortality.

Cardiac rehabilitation program

The cardiac rehabilitation program is an outpatient exercise intervention consisting of 36 sessions (30-50 minutes) of a progressive exercise program. Participants are closely monitored throughout the sessions using a telemetry monitor and are supervised by a team of cardiac rehabilitation nurses and exercise physiologists. In addition to the exercise program, participants will receive educational sessions for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors including: 1) Diet/Nutrition, 2) Smoking cessation, 3) Physical activity, 4) Medication management/adherence and 5) Behavior change. As a part of the program, based on the initial assessment results, patients are referred to a rehabilitation psychologist or a dietician for consultation and evaluation if needed. In addition, participants will also receive their standard of care therapies as prescribed by their treating physicians.
