CPET is essential for comprehensive care of patients w/ CHD, offering valuable prognostic insights & assisting in clinical decision-making across various congenital heart conditions, thereby significantly ⬆️patient management & outcomes. ✍🏼 @AdamPowellMD @_Dave_W @BarbaraCifra

"Growing up they were warned exercise was too dangerous for their damaged hearts." Great to see HRI's world-first study, led by Assoc Prof Rachael Cordina and @derekleetran, getting such prominent media coverage in @dailytelegraph over the weekend! #CHD #hearthealth

Exercise remains an underutilised therapy in people with congenital heart disease (CHD). Our multicentre clinical trial will provide evidence to help develop exercise guidelines and models of care for people living with CHD! @ESSA_NEWS @HRIAust @USYD_CVI @MedResearchNSW @CPC_usyd

More exercise for long-term health is one of the pillars of chronic disease prevention. But the benefits are not as clear for Australians born with heart disease, prompting a world-first trial to see if more movement helps. @gabyrogers #9News

Is this the best paper of the year? Can a lot of HFpEF be prevented/cured by exercise? Should we stop skipping the physical activity part of the office visit? Interested in thoughts https://t.co/4suDXNl45T

This one suggests that aerobic physical activity durations of 3 hours/week and resistance training exercise ~1–2 times/week may substantively reduce the risk of all-cause mortality, with their combination confering additional mortality risk reduction beyond cardio alone.
