Summary

This study looks at whether a 12-week cardiac rehabilitation program—including supervised exercise, education, and lifestyle advice—can improve heart function and quality of life in people who have had a heart attack treated with stenting. One hundred participants will be randomly assigned to either the rehab program or standard care. The main goal is to see if rehab helps the heart's pumping ability and structure recover better.
