Philippine doctor champions early rehab for heart attack patients
Dr. Noel D. Nequin of Swedish Covenant Hospital leads a Midwest program urging heart attack patients to begin supervised exercise soon after stabilization. The plan, spanning eight to 20 weeks, moves from chair time to walking, stairs, and gym work, with stress tests and ongoing maintenance. Nequin says recovery also boosts morale and helps patients return to work faster, typically within 8 to 12 weeks.
