Coronary disease & ACS

Socio-geographical factors associated with cardiac rehabilitation participation after percutaneous coronary intervention: a registry-based cohort study from France

Eur J Prev CardiolPublished Registry-based cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Post-PCI CR participation was low. Proximity to CR centres promoted participation for ACS patients, while CR usage correlated with higher socioeconomic status for CCS patients.
