In this brief communication, we reported Telehealth Home-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) program structure and preliminary outcomes from patients that completed a 12-week program after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). We aim to advocate the use of Telerehabilitation as a Phase II CR in patients immediately after the CABG. This approach was innovative and encouraging because the patients were still in subacute phase. The program can serve as a continuation of care for the patients after being discharged from a hospital while regaining their functional ability at home. Our preliminary outcomes demonstrated improvements in resting heart rate, activity level, nutrition status, self-efficacy for managing cardiac diseases, muscle strength, endurance and depression. There were no adverse events during the virtual sessions. Patient satisfaction score was high.
在这篇简要的通讯中，我们报告了远程心脏康复（CR）计划的结构和在冠状动脉旁路移植手术后（CABG）完成 12 周计划的患者的初步结果。我们旨在倡导在 CABG 后立即将远程康复作为第二期 CR 使用。这种方法是创新和令人鼓舞的，因为患者仍处于亚急性期。该计划可以作为患者出院后的延续护理，同时在家中恢复他们的功能能力。我们的初步结果表明，静息心率、活动水平、营养状况、管理心脏病的自我效能、肌肉力量、耐力和抑郁状况都有所改善。虚拟会议期间没有发生不良事件。患者满意度评分很高。
