| Popis: |
Heart failure (HF) is an important public health issue in South America. Economic impacts are substantial. Chagas heart disease is a prevalent HF etiology; it is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is an integral component of HF care. The benefits of CR in HF patients need to be assessed. The effectiveness and safety of CR delivery, such as home-based interventions, should be explored. Strategies to improve adherence in CR are imperative. We describe past and current CR trends for HF patients and discuss the future of this important intervention. |
