The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) has issued its first comprehensive guidelines on cardiac rehabilitation, emphasizing the program’s wide-ranging benefits for heart health, overall physical condition, and mental well‑being. Cardiac rehabilitation is described as a personalized regimen that assists patients in managing cardiac disease and recovering after a heart event or surgery.
