Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!

This episode explores exercise-based rehabilitation, an intervention with NHMRC Level I evidence that has been proven to improve functional capacity, quality of life, and reduce hospitalisations. We break down the "gold standard" prescription: low-impact aerobic modes (walking/cycling), a 3x/week frequency, and using the Borg RPE scale to safely set intensity (starting at 10). Learn to avoid critical safety errors by screening for absolute contraindications like recent MI, worsening dyspnoea, or a resting HR >120 bpm. Master the three-phase session structure to demonstrate safe, evidence-based care.
