MOVEMENT ANALYSIS OF CARDIAC REHABILITATION PARTICIPANTS |
||||
Patients who participate in cardiac rehabilitation programs wish to understand how the program has helped them recover and return to normal activities of daily living . Conventional cardiac rehabilitation programs subjectively monitor patient progress , encouraging participants to “ keep up the good work ” during their program with little objective data measured on actual progress . However , the leadership team for cardiac rehabilitation have gone further than conventional rehab programs , introducing the Movement Analysis ( MA ) of Cardiac Rehabilitation Participants study in 2019 to measure pre- and postoutcomes of cardiac rehabilitation participants . The MA measures several pillars of physical fitness such as muscle strength , cardiorespiratory fitness , balance , flexibility , and mobility . The scope and depth of the MA differentiates the Walter I . Berman Center ’ s program from others in the area . |
