Early cardiac rehabilitation
This is an early cardiac rehabilitation programme starting 1-2 weeks after hospital discharge (Phase 2A rehabilitation). The programme provided by a multidisciplinary team includes individual counseling, educational sessions and discussion in groups, and exercise training sessions three days a week for five weeks. For additional analysis there will be a comparison group that did not receive the intervention for practical reasons.
