Cardiac Rehabilitation
Cardiac rehabilitation helps patients recover and improve their heart health through supervised exercise, education, and individualized treatment plans.
Phase I: Inpatient Cardiac Rehabilitation
Support and education provided during your hospital stay to help prepare for recovery.
Phase II: Outpatient Cardiac Rehabilitation
A monitored program consisting of 18–36 sessions. Exercise plans are tailored to each patient’s needs, goals, and physician recommendations.
Phase III: Maintenance Program
Designed to help patients maintain heart health and safely return to normal daily activities, work, and recreation.
Cardiac rehabilitation may benefit patients recovering from:
Heart attack
Angina
Angioplasty or stent placement
Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG)
Heart valve repair or replacement
Heart transplant
Heart Monitoring
Event Monitor
An event monitor is worn for an extended period, typically up to one month. It records heart rhythm during symptoms to help identify irregular heart activity.
Holter Monitor
A Holter monitor continuously records heart activity for 24 hours, allowing providers to evaluate heart rates, irregular rhythms, and symptoms that occur throughout the day.
Stress Testing
Stress testing evaluates how well the heart functions during physical activity or simulated exercise. Heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and heart rhythm are monitored throughout the test.
Exercise Stress Test
This test combines exercise with imaging to evaluate blood flow to the heart during activity and at rest.
Pharmacological Stress Test (Lexiscan)
For patients who are unable to exercise, medication is used to simulate the effects of exercise and assess blood flow through the coronary arteries.
