Telemedicine, Cardiac rehabilitation, Telerehabilitation, Clinical applicationsAbstract
Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) are regarded as a leading cause of death globally,
constituting important medical, social and economical problem. Systematic reviews and metaanalyses
show the positive effect of exercise-based Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR). Despite wellestablished
benefits of CR, many heart failure patients do not attend such programs for a variety
of reasons. Cardiac telerehabilitation has the huge potential to deliver CR programs to aforementioned
patients. The aim of this study was threefold: to establish the current state of the cardiac
telerehabilitation, investigate the extent to which the available opportunities in cardiac telerehabilitation
are being exploited, and discuss clinical perspectives and directions of further research.
