Twenty-two male and female patients who had recently suffered a myocardial infarction were randomly assigned to a treatment group who participated in a 10-week exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation programme or a routine care group who did not participate in the rehabilitation programme. Physiological and psychological function were assessed before the programme started and after it finished. Results indicated that the treatment group did not improve physiological functioning more than the control group but they did evidence statistically significant improved psychological functioning. This investigation appears to be the first attempt to assess the potential benefits of an exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation programme in Glasgow and supports the suggestion that exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation has psychological benefits.
22名近期发生心肌梗死的男性和女性患者被随机分为两组，一组为参与为期10周的心脏康复锻炼计划的治疗组，另一组为不参与康复计划的常规护理组。在该计划开始前和结束后对生理和心理功能进行了评估。结果表明，治疗组在生理功能改善方面并不比对照组更显著，但在心理功能改善方面有统计学意义上的显著提升。这项调查似乎是在格拉斯哥评估基于运动的心脏康复计划潜在益处的首次尝试，并支持了基于运动的心脏康复具有心理益处这一观点。
