Abstract

Little has been published about the differences or similarities in patient and spouse views of the patient's health-related quality of life (HRQL) related to cardiac rehabilitation (CR) participation. This study described patient versus spouse (proxy) ratings of patient HRQL prior to (T1) and after 6 weeks (T2) of phase II CR.
