Stroke survivors can now reduce their chances of death by 76% through modified cardiac rehabilitation

Survivors of serious stroke can reduce their chances of dying within the year by 76% if they complete a modified cardiac rehabilitation program that includes medically supervised exercise, prescribed therapy, and physician follow-up, according to new research published in the Journal of Stroke & Cerebrovascular Diseases, published by Elsevier. The findings have the potential to change the future of stroke care.
