To the best of our knowledge, this is the first prospective study that investigated whether job satisfaction predicts time to RTW after cardiac interventions. The results suggested that when patients are satisfied with their job and positively perceived their work environment, they will be more likely to early RTW, independently of socio-demographic, medical and psychological factors.

Intra- and interobserver reproducibility of RV parameters assessed by CMR are adequate in a wide range of RV dimensions and function. However, caution is required with respect to the significance of small changes of EF and mass in the case of poor function and hypertrophy of the RV, respectively.
