Mobilizing artificial intelligence to cardiac telerehabilitation

Cardiac telerehabilitation is a method that uses digital technologies to deliver cardiac rehabilitation from a distance. It has been shown to have benefits to improve patients' disease outcomes and quality of life, and further reduce readmission and adverse cardiac events. The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic has brought considerable new challenges to cardiac rehabilitation, which foster cardiac telerehabilitation to be broadly applied. This transformation is associated with some difficulties that urgently need some innovations to search for the right path. Artificial intelligence, which has a high level of data mining and interpretation, may provide a potential solution. This review evaluates the current application and limitations of artificial intelligence in cardiac telerehabilitation and offers prospects.
