Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of rehabilitation exercise on coronary artery of the patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: We searched Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL databases, ISI Web of Science databases, Chinese Biological Medicine Data Base, Chinese knowledge resources, and Wan Fang database. Two researchers independently screened the literature databases, and assessed methodological qualities using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale and extracted data. Results: The coronary restenosis rate in rehabilitation exercise group was 10.8% (23/212), and that in the control group was 21% (48/229). Patients with rehabilitation exercise showed a significant reduction in restenosis rate, compared to the control group ((pooled OR: 0.46, 95% CI: 0.26–0.82, p < 0.01); heterogeneity: Chi2=3.86, df =5 (p = 0.57); I2=0%). In addition, the late luminal loss per stent in the rehabilitation exercise group was significantly smaller than that in the control group ((pooled MD: –0.33, 95% CI: –0.52 to –0.13, p < 0.01); heterogeneity: Chi2=0.27, df =1 (p = 0.60); I2=0%). Conclusions: Appropriate rehabilitation exercise reduces the incidence of coronary restenosis after PCI in patients with CHD and contributes to a significant reduction in late luminal loss in the stented coronary segment.Keywords
