Summary

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the leading causes of death around the world, with the potential for substantial morbidity and mortality. The increasing evidence indicates that exercise training has beneficial effects on LV remodelling in post-MI patients with greater benefits occurring when training earlier following MI, among which the earliest time for rehabilitation is one week after myocardial infarction. However, the effect of Baduanjin sequential therapy for patients after one week of AMI has yet to be assessed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the impact of Baduanjin sequential therapy on cardiac and physical function in patients with AMI and reduced ejection fraction after primary PCI.

Conditions

• AMI

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Baduanjin sequential therapy	A detailed description of a standardized Baduanjin exercise protocol complied with the "Health Qigong Baduanjin Standard" enacted by the General Administration of Sports in 2003.
BEHAVIORAL	Aerobic exercise	Participants allocated to the usual exercise control group receive a closely supervised, group-format aerobic exercise program located at home or cardiac rehabilitation centre lasting 3 months. The program is consistent with the current recommended guidelines of moderate-intensity exercises for MI.
