Clinical benefits in patients with home-based cardiac rehabilitation in the era of COVID-19 pandemic

I read the study by Jafri et al.1 with great interest. The authors evaluated outcomes of patients with or without home-based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR). Although HBCR was significantly associated with a lower risk of the combined all-cause mortality and all-cause hospitalizations up to 12 months, the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) of HBCR for all-cause mortality, cardiovascular hospitalization, and all-cause hospitalization were 0.43 (0.18 –1.0), 0.57 (0.22–1.4), 0.53 (0.28–1.01), respectively.
