Körperliche Aktivität und koronare Herzkrankheit

Journal/Book: Schweiz Rundschau Med. 1990; 79: 1068-1073.

Abstract: Epidemiological data suggest that in middle aged men a regular physical activity, occupational or in leisure rime, may protect against a first coronary event. Randomized clinical trial of cardiac rehabilitation after myocar-dial infarction, including physical training, has shown a positive trend for reduced rates of all-cause death and coronary! death in the intervention group. Although not statistically significant, physical training in coronary patients is recommended because the benefits of training include an improved exercise tol-erance and risk factor profile. Furthermore. supervised cardiac exercise programmes ap-pear to be safe for the average patients with the possible exception of some patients with large anterior wall infarctions who might de-teriorate and have, therefore, to be closely controlled during rehabilitation.
