First seen Dec 08, 2025 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 24 times
Summary
This study tested whether starting gentle exercise soon after coronary artery bypass surgery, guided by wearable heart monitors, improves patients' ability to walk and function. 84 stable patients were split into three groups: usual care, usual care plus cycling, or usual care plus resistance exercises. The goal was to see if early, monitored movement could boost recovery before discharge.
