Randomised controlled trial of standard outpatient cardiac rehabilitation versus personalised cardiac rehabilitation for secondary prevention for all in need (SPAN) after type 1 myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Cardiac rehabilitation after type 1 myocardial infarction (type 1 MI) is an effective but underutilised method of preventing new cardiac events.
