Al-Azhar International Medical Journal

Background: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has emerged as a comprehensive intervention including several facets and disciplines, with the primary objective of inhibiting the advancement of cardiovascular disease in individuals diagnosed with conditions of the heart and promoting overall health restoration. The objective of this research was to assess the effect of CR on the process of left ventricular (LV) remodeling, specifically using three-dimensional echocardiography (3D-ECHO) after an episode of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: This randomized controlled trial (RCT) was carried out on sixty patients who suffered recently from acute STEMI and treated with delayed percutaneous intervention (PCI). Patients …
