Bengaluru: Aster CMI Hospital has unveiled a Cardiac Rehabilitation program that includes Preventive Cardiology and Rehabilitation services, aimed at improving heart health and preventing future cardiovascular issues. This initiative targets individuals at risk of heart disease and those recovering from events like heart attacks, stent placements, and surgeries.

Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) is a medically supervised program that combines structured exercise, education, and lifestyle counselling to aid in heart recovery and prevent further complications. It helps patients rebuild cardiovascular function, adopt heart-healthy habits, manage stress, and improve overall quality of life. Studies show that CR significantly reduces the risk of future cardiac events and improves survival rates for heart patients.

The program adopts a multidisciplinary approach, involving cardiologists, physiotherapists, dietitians, and psychologists to offer personalized care. A highlight of the initiative is the use of AI-powered monitoring systems, enabling real-time progress tracking and customized exercise plans. Patients and their families also receive emotional and educational support, ensuring holistic recovery and prevention strategies.

Dr Nagamalesh UM, Lead Consultant and Interventional Cardiologist at Aster CMI Hospital, stated:"Heart health is fundamental to overall well-being, and our specialized programs are designed to empower individuals with the tools they need to lead healthier lives."

Dr Azad Moopen, Chairman of Aster DM Healthcare, emphasized:"We are excited to introduce the Preventive Cardiology and Cardiac Rehabilitation services at Aster CMI Hospital. This initiative reflects our commitment to enhancing patient outcomes through early intervention and holistic care. By combining advanced medical technology with personalized attention, we aim to redefine cardiac recovery and prevention."

SGS Lakshmanan, COO of Aster CMI Hospital, added:"With advanced medical expertise and state-of-the-art facilities, this initiative focuses on reducing the incidence of heart disease while improving our patients' quality of life."

The program focuses on improving heart health through comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation. By combining advanced technology with expert care, it supports patients in their recovery journey and helps them adopt sustainable, heart-healthy lifestyles, ultimately reducing the risk of future cardiovascular complications.
