Cardiac Rehabilitation After Pacemaker Implantation
- Conditions
- BradycardiaPacemaker
- Interventions
- Behavioral: cardiac rehabilitation
- Registration Number
- NCT05015075
- Lead Sponsor
- Pusan National University Hospital
- Brief Summary
The investigators assessed whether short-term cardiac rehabilitation following pacemaker implantation was enough to improve both physical function and quality of life.
- Detailed Description
Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) improves clinical outcomes in patients with cardiovascular diseases. However, few data exist regarding the role of early short-term CR in patients undergoing pacemaker (PM) implantation. The investigators assessed whether short-term CR following PM implantation was enough to improve both physical function and quality of life (QOL).
Recruitment & Eligibility
- Status
- COMPLETED
- Sex
- All
- Target Recruitment
- 27

- Study Type
- INTERVENTIONAL
- Study Design
- PARALLEL
- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description non-CR group cardiac rehabilitation participants who have only routine regular follow-up after PM instead of CR program CR group cardiac rehabilitation participants who have exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation program after PM.
