Cardiac Rehab: Treating Conditions
Stable angina, heart attack, heart failure, heart surgery, angioplasty, and peripheral artery disease are reasons to go to cardiac rehabilitation.
Dr. Joshua Harris, Cardiologist and Medical Director for Cardiac Rehabilitation at Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute, explains stable angina is when you get chest discomfort when you do a physical activity and you have to stop, and have a rest to keep going. He also points out heart surgery is the ultimate treatment for heart disease.
