Abstract
Aims: The aims of this study were to establish cardiac rehabilitation availability and density, as well as the nature of
programmes, and to compare these by European region (geoscheme) and with other high-income countries.
Methods: A survey was administered to cardiac rehabilitation programmes globally. Cardiac associations were engaged
to facilitate programme identification. Density was computed using global burden of disease study ischaemic heart
disease incidence estimates. Four high-income countries were selected for comparison (N¼790 programmes) to
European data, and multilevel analyses were performed.
Results: Cardiac rehabilitation was available in 40/44 (90.9%) European countries. Data were collected in 37 (94.8%
country response rate). A total of 455/1538 (29.6% response rate) programme respondents initiated the survey.
Programme volumes (median 300) were greatest in western European countries, but overall were higher than in
other high-income countries (P
