JCRP was the first, and remains the only, professional journal dedicated to improving multidisciplinary clinical practice and expanding research evidence specific to both cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation. This includes exercise testing and prescription, behavioral medicine, and cardiopulmonary risk factor management. In 2007, JCRP expanded its scope to include primary prevention of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. JCRP publishes scientific and clinical peer-reviewed Original Investigations, Reviews, and Brief or Case Reports focused on the causes, prevention, and treatment of individuals with cardiovascular or pulmonary diseases in both a print and online-only format. Editorial features include Editorials, Invited Commentaries, Literature Updates, and Clinically-relevant Topical Updates. JCRP is the official Journal of the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation and the Canadian Association of Cardiac Rehabilitation.

of CR. Using instrumental variables (IV), CR improved mortality by 8.0% (P < .001). A validation analysis based on 70 040 propensity-based (PB) matched pairs gave a similar gain (8.3%, P < .0001). The present cost-effectiveness analysis builds on these mortality results. Methods: Using the framework of the Second Panel on Cost-Effectiveness Analysis, we calculated the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) gained due to CR. We accessed the costs from this cohort, inflated to 2022 prices, and assessed the relationship of quality-adjusted life years (QALY) to life years from a systematic review. We estimated the ICER of CR by modeling lifetime costs and QALY from national life tables using IV and PB. Results: Using IV, CR added 1.344 QALY (95% CI, 0.543-2.144) and $40 472 in costs over the remaining lifetimes of participants. The ICER was $30 188 (95% CI, $18 175-$74 484)/QALY over their lifetimes. Using the PB analysis, the corresponding lifetime values were 2.018 (95% CI, 1.001-3.

Cardiac rehab (CR) is highly underutilized despite it's suggested clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness. In this article, Dr. Shepard et al., discuss their evidence which supports the need to increase the use of CR. Read it today: https://t.co/PNGkxUCdCF @TheHellerSchool https://t.co/pAw4zU0L6q

of CR on all-cause readmission and mortality. Methods: Patients (n = 2641) with CAD, CR eligible, and physically able were identified. Electronic medical records were inspected individually for each patient to extract demographic, clinical characteristic, readmission, and mortality information. Patients (n = 214) attended ≥1 CR session (CR group). Survival was considered free from: all-cause readmission; or composite outcome of all-cause readmission or death. Cox proportional hazards models, adjusting for demographics, comorbidities, and discharge criteria, were used to determine HR with 95% CI and to compare 180-d survival rates between the CR and no-CR groups. Results: During 180 d of follow-up, 12.1% and 18.7% of the CR and non-CR patients were readmitted to the hospital. There was one death (0.5%) in the CR group, while 98 deaths (4.0%) occurred in the non-CR group. After adjustment for age, sex, race, depression, anxiety, dyslipidemia, hypertension, obesity, smoking, type 2 diabet

Why is data regarding the efficacy of CR for those with CAD so inconsistent? Are confounding factors to blame? Here, Duscha et al. investigate this question in order to determine possible impacts on the effect of CR on all-cause readmission and mortality: https://t.co/AoQ40Vc0G1 https://t.co/RZKPUQBvti

compensation point (RCP), and peak oxygen uptake (V˙o2peak) at the individual level are not established. We applied reliable change index (RCI) statistics to determine minimal meaningful change (MMCRCI) cutoffs of θLT, RCP, and V˙o2peak for individual patients with CVD. Methods: Sixty-six stable patients post-cardiac event performed three exhaustive treadmill-based incremental exercise tests (modified Bruce) ∼1 wk apart (T1-T3). Breath-by-breath gas exchange and ventilatory variables were measured by metabolic cart and used to identify θLT, RCP, and V˙o2peak. Using test-retest reliability and mean difference scores to estimate error and test practice/exposure, respectively, MMCRCI values were calculated for V˙o2 (mL·min−1.kg−1) at θLT, RCP, and V˙o2peak. Results: There were no significant between-trial differences in V˙o2 at θLT (P = .78), RCP (P = .08), or V˙o2peak (P = .74) and each variable exhibited excellent test-retest variability (intraclass correlation: 0.97, 0.98, and 0.99; co

This technology aims to address the various subsequent shortfalls of organs. This report reviews the impact of a prehabilitation on a patient with an Aeson TAH (Carmat). Discussion: We assessed improvements in functional capacity and quality of life (QoL) in a newly implanted patient following standard cardiac rehabilitation as a prehabilitation program, using 6-min walk test and the Short Form-12 (SF-12) health survey, respectively. Similar functional improvements were observed over a short period of 2 wk compared with a longer protocol for patients with a heart transplant, and superior effects on QoL. The patient was successfully transplanted 5 mo after the TAH implantation. Summary: Prehabilitation of a patient with a TAH increased both their physical capacity and QoL….

ergoing CR with a WCD. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of all patients with a WCD who completed a CR in Austria (2010-2020). Results: Patients (n = 55, 60 ± 11 yr, 16% female) with a median baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 36 (30, 41)% at the start of CR showed a daily WCD wearing duration of 23.4 (22, 24) hr. There were 2848 (8 [1, 26]/patient) automatic alarms and 340 (3 [1, 7]/patient) manual alarms generated. No shocks were delivered by the WCD during the CR period. One patient had recurrent hemodynamically tolerated ventricular tachycardias that were controlled with antiarrhythmic drugs. No severe WCD-associated adverse events occurred during the CR stay of a median 28 (28, 28) d. The fabric garment and the device setting needed to be adjusted in two patients to diminish inappropriate automatic alarms. Left ventricular ejection fraction after CR increased significantly to 42 (30, 44)% (P < .001). Wearable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy was s
