Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the effects of phase II cardiac rehabilitation among post-revascularization patients with coronary artery disease. Methods: Sixty-three eligible participants were recruited to participate in phase II cardiac rehabilitation program which included exercise sessions and patient education lectures. Exercise sessions were conducted three times a week for 12 weeks, with a total of 36 exercise sessions. Educational lectures were provided once a week for 12 weeks. The exercise capacity, anxiety, and depression of participants were measured before and after phase II cardiac rehabilitation. Results: Patient adherence to phase II cardiac rehabilitation was 42.9%. After the phase II cardiac rehabilitation, the exercise capacity value was significantly higher than that in the baseline (P<0.01). Moreover, the scores of anxiety and depression were significantly lower than those in the baseline (P<0.01). Conclusion: The medical professionals should pay attention to patients' adherence to phase II cardiac rehabilitation, as it is found to be relatively low. Phase II cardiac rehabilitation has a significant and positive impact on exercise capacity, anxiety, and depression among post-revascularization patients with coronary artery disease.
