Background: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR), a multidisciplinary program consisting of exercise, risk factor modification
and psychosocial intervention, forms an integral part of managing patients after myocardial infarction (MI),
revascularization surgery and percutaneous coronary interventions, as well as patients with heart failure (HF). This
systematic review seeks to examine the cost-effectiveness of CR for patients with MI or HF and inform policy
makers in Singapore on published cost-effectiveness studies on CR.
