“…The multicenter, prospective observational study design of the ISYDE-2008 has been described in detail elsewhere [19][20][21]. Briefly, the primary purpose of the study was to explore the current organization, settings and provision of CR in Italy and to describe the patient population referred to CR, giving a comprehensive and detailed description of clinical characteristics, risk profile, diagnostic procedures, exercise and educational program, discharge modalities, treatment at discharge and follow-up schedules.…”

Frailty is a geriatric syndrome characterised by a vulnerability status associated with declining function of multiple physiological systems and loss of physiological reserves. Two main models of frailty have been advanced: the phenotypic model (primary frailty) or deficits accumulation model (secondary frailty), and different instruments have been proposed and validated to measure frailty. However measured, frailty correlates to medical outcomes in the elderly, and has been shown to have prognostic value for patients in different clinical settings, such as in patients with coronary artery disease, after cardiac surgery or transvalvular aortic valve replacement, in patients with chronic heart failure or after left ventricular assist device implantation. The prevalence, clinical and prognostic relevance of frailty in a cardiac rehabilitation setting has not yet been well characterised, despite the increasing frequency of elderly patients in cardiac rehabilitation, where frailty is likely to influence the onset, type and intensity of the exercise training programme and the design of tailored rehabilitative interventions for these patients. Therefore, we need to start looking for frailty in elderly patients entering cardiac rehabilitation programmes and become more familiar with some of the tools to recognise and evaluate the severity of this condition. Furthermore, we need to better understand whether exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation may change the course and the prognosis of frailty in cardiovascular patients.

“…Initiating traditional exercise training without addressing these deficits and other special needs could cause injuries and worsen outcomes. Indeed, there are reports of increased adverse events, including injuries and falls, associated with standard rehabilitation interventions in frail older populations (61,62). …”
