multidisciplinary program that helps patients recover their physical and mental health after a cardiac event and reduce the risk of future problems.<span class=\"s1\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/span> It is a crucial and indispensable step after a heart attack, bypass operation or stent implantation.<span class=\"s1\"><sup>2<\/sup><\/span> As your cardiology practice in D\u00fcsseldorf, we accompany you as part of the outpatient <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> long-term and in partnership on your way back to an active, safe and enjoyable everyday life.<\/p><p class=\"p2\"><b>The goals of cardiac rehabilitation: more than just physical training<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">The goal of a modern <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> goes far beyond mere physical recovery. It is a holistic approach that aims to empower you as a patient to become the expert on your own condition and regain control of your health.<\/p><p class=\"p1\"><b>The central objectives are:<\/b><b><\/b><\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li1\"><b>Increase in physical performance:<\/b> Safe and gradual recovery of strength and endurance under medical supervision.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Reduction of risk factors:<\/b> Consistent adjustment of blood pressure and cholesterol, support with smoking cessation and weight management.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Reduction of fear and insecurity:<\/b> Regaining confidence in your own body and its resilience.<span class=\"s1\"><sup>3<\/sup><\/span><\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Improving the quality of life:<\/b> Enabling a return to work, hobbies and an active social life.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Reduction in the risk of recurrent cardiac events:<\/b> A consistently implemented <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> has been shown to reduce mortality and the rate of re-infarction.<span class=\"s1\"><sup>4<\/sup><\/span><\/li><\/ul><p class=\"p2\"><b>The phases of cardiac rehabilitation: from hospital back to everyday life<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">The <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> in Germany is typically divided into three phases, which merge seamlessly into one another.<\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li1\"><b>Phase I (acute phase):<\/b> Begins just a few days after the event in the acute hospital. It includes initial mobilization under physiotherapeutic guidance.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Phase II (post-acute rehabilitation):<\/b> This is the actual \u201erehab\u201c. It usually takes place over a period of 3-4 weeks, either as an inpatient in a rehabilitation clinic or as a day patient in an outpatient rehabilitation facility. An intensive training program and comprehensive training courses take place here.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Phase III (long-term outpatient phase):<\/b> This phase begins after completion of rehab and ideally lasts a lifetime. It is supported by practicing cardiologists and outpatient \u201eheart groups\u201c. This is precisely where we are your central medical partner.<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"p2\"><b>Cardiac rehabilitation in our practice: your long-term outpatient care<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">After your return from the rehabilitation clinic, the decisive phase of long-term implementation and monitoring begins. As your supervising cardiology practice, we take over in phase III of the <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> the following important tasks:<\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li1\"><b>Regular cardiological checks:<\/b> We monitor the healing process and the condition of your heart using ECG, cardiac ultrasound and stress tests.<\/li><li class=\"li1\"><b>Optimization of drug therapy:<\/b> Secondary prevention with medication is a cornerstone of rehab.

The important long-term phase (phase III) then takes place completely on an outpatient basis with your cardiologist and in a heart group.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Who prescribes cardiac rehabilitation?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">The need for a <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> (Phase II) is usually determined in the acute hospital. The hospital's social services department will help you to apply to your insurance provider (pension insurance or health insurance). Your cardiologist will then issue the prescription for participation in an outpatient cardiac group (phase III).<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Does the health insurance company cover the costs?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">Yes, the <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> is a recognized and evaluated medical service. The costs for Phase II are usually covered by pension insurance (if you are in employment) or health insurance. The costs for participation in a certified outpatient heart group are also covered by health insurance for a limited period of time.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>What is an \u201eoutpatient heart group\u201c?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">An outpatient heart group is a group of heart patients who meet regularly (usually 1-2 times a week) to exercise together under the guidance of a specially qualified exercise instructor and under medical supervision.<span class=\"s1\"><sup>9<\/sup><\/span> It is the centerpiece of the long-term <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> and combines exercise, social interaction and medical safety.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Do I have to be sporty to take part in a heart group?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p4\">No, not at all. The heart groups are divided into different fitness levels, from pure exercise groups to groups with endurance sports. Before taking part, your individual fitness level will be determined in our practice using an exercise ECG in order to find the right group for you.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>How long should I take part in a heart group?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">The health insurance companies usually approve participation for 1-2 years. From a medical point of view, however, the aim of <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b>, that you integrate exercise as an integral part of your life. Many patients remain in their group as self-payers even after the cost coverage ends, as they value the safety and the community.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>I'm afraid of overloading my heart during sport. Is that justified?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">This fear is completely normal and understandable after a cardiac event. This is exactly where the <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> Under professional guidance, you will learn how to correctly interpret your body's signals and safely dose your exercise. Training in the heart group under medical supervision is the safest way to regain this confidence.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>What happens alongside sport in cardiac rehabilitation?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">A good <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> also includes comprehensive training programs. You will learn everything you need to know about your condition, how your medication works, a heart-healthy diet and how to deal with stress.<span class=\"s1\"><sup>10<\/sup><\/span> This knowledge makes you a competent partner in managing your own health.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>Can I go back to work after cardiac rehab?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">Yes, that is one of the primary goals of the <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b>. The program is designed to get you fit enough to return to work. The social services of the rehabilitation clinic and your cardiologist will advise you on the gradual reintegration.<\/p><p class=\"p5\"><b>My heart attack was a long time ago. Can I still start rehab?<\/b><\/p><p class=\"p1\">Yes, it is never too late. Even if the event happened some time ago, you can still benefit from the elements of Phase III of the <b>Cardiac rehabilitation<\/b> benefit. Talk to us.
