My husband has quadruple bypass surgery 2 weeks ago.  Our insurance does not cover cardiac rehab and he needs some kind of exercise plan.  He is 60 years old and is doing reall well, but needs to start some kind of exercise plan.  Can you help us.  Suzanne
Post discharge of patient for the first week he should be walking around in the house ....donor over stress just try to ambulate your body for the 2nd week daily walk less than 100 metres is advocated apart from normal day-to-day routine activities for the 3rd week a walk less than 500metre per day is to be done from 4th week onward a 30 min walk is advocated and restoration of life to all normal activities should be done one main point is ...at any part of rehabilitation do not over do ....do it slowly and slowly ...never exert more than what your body can tolerate!!!!thanks
