Impact of cardiac rehabilitation on the exercise function of children with serious congenital heart disease
J Rhodes, TJ Curran, L Camil, N Rabideau… - …, 2005 - publications.aap.org
Objectives. The exercise capacity of children with congenital heart disease (CHD) is often
depressed. This depression is thought to be attributable to (1) residual hemodynamic
defects and (2) deconditioning secondary to physical inactivity. We hypothesized that this
latter component would be ameliorated by a formal cardiac rehabilitation program designed
specifically for children. The objective of this study was to characterize the effect of a cardiac
rehabilitation program on the exercise performance of children with CHD and to define the …
