Brief summary

Home-based rehabilitation programs have not been widely few been studied and the training effects are not unclear. This study evaluates the beneficial effects of home-based cardiac rehabilitation on quality of medical care in patients with chronic heart failure.

Detailed description

cardiopulmonary rehabilitation programs are safe and effective for improving functional capacity, quality of life, as well as for reducing in the re-admission rate and all-cause mortality of patients with heart failure.clinical trials that have established the benefits of hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation for patients with chronic heart failure. Home-based cardiac rehabilitation could be more accessible and acceptable compared with hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation.
