Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!


Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation is supported by NHMRC Level I evidence and is essential for post-MI or CABG recovery. This episode breaks down the perfect OSCE prescription, covering low-impact aerobic modes like walking and the Borg RPE 11-13 intensity. Learn to counsel patients with the "start slow and progress gradually" mantra. Crucially, we detail critical safety errors, such as failing to screen for contraindications like unstable angina or uncontrolled hypertension (BP ≥180/110). Master frequency and progression to deliver safe, evidence-based management plans.
