Although #cardiacrehab saves lives, most eligible patients are not referred to a rehab program! And referral rates are even lower among women! 🫀💃

Ensuring every school is ready for a cardiac emergency is a huge step forward in protecting young hearts. We’re proud to support the #HEARTSact and continue our work with the Smart Heart Sports Coalition.
On December 26, 2024, President Biden signed the bipartisan #HEARTSact into law, ensuring schools nationwide are prepared for cardiac emergencies.

HRA & @heartrhythmsociety.bsky.social proudly supported this legislation as a member of the Smart Heart Sports Coalition.

Are physical activity levels & sedentary time of adults in Canada with vs. without ♥️disease different?

Existing studies have been limited by small, region-specific samples, reliance on self-reported measures, & lack of sex-or gender-disaggregated data, leaving knowledge gaps.
