Overview of Physical Activity in UA / NSTEMI
ACC / AHA Guidelines (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
| “ |
Class I1. The patient’s risk after UA / NSTEMI should be assessed on the basis of an in-hospital determination of risk. A physical activity history or an exercise test to guide initial prescription is beneficial. (Level of Evidence: B) 2. Guided/modified by an individualized exercise prescription, patients recovering from UA / NSTEMI generally should be encouraged to achieve physical activity duration of 30 to 60 min/day, preferably 7 (but at least 5) day/week of moderate aerobic activity, such as brisk walking, supplemented by an increase in daily lifestyle activities (e.g., walking breaks at work, gardening, and household work). (Level of Evidence: B) 3. Cardiac rehabilitation / secondary prevention programs are recommended for patients with UA / NSTEMI, particularly those with multiple modifiable risk factors and/or those moderate- to high-risk patients in whom supervised exercise training is particularly warranted. (Level of Evidence: B) Class IIb1. The expansion of physical activity to include resistance training on 2 day per week may be reasonable. (Level of Evidence: C) |
