Exercise training for cardiac patients : adherence, fitness and benefits
FONTANA AF; KERNS RD; ROSENBERG RL
J CARDPULM REHABIL , 1986, vol. 6, n° 1, p. 4-15 Doc n°: 26192 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : FA - COEUR Ninety-five men consecutively admitted for uncomplicated acute myocardial infarction or for coronary artery bypass graft surgery were screened for exercise training based on their ability to exercise and the distance of their residence from the exercise site, yielding a final sample of 50. Patients were followed up for a period of one year posthospitalization. Neither the extent of participation in exercise training (beyond six weeks of the 12-week program), nor the continuation of exercise training was related significantly to improvement in benefits. The pattern of positive relationships between exercise adherence and benefits and null relationships between exercise aerobic fitness and benefits are discussed in terms of a possible psychologic mechanism through which exercise may exert its positive effects.
