Résumé

There is little data regarding the impact of patient age on the physical and psychological effectiveness of cardiac rehabilitation (CR). The aim of the present study was therefore to compare the effects of an exercise-based CR program on physical and psychological parameters in young, old, and very old patients. We also aimed to identify the features that best predicted CR outcome.
