主 题:Cardiac eomorbidities Older people Physical activity
摘 要:The World Health Organisation (WHO) launched a global action plan on physical activity to provide a frame- work of policy actions to increase physical activity in June 2018. Physical activity is an effective intervention for pre- vention and management of non-communicable diseases including cardiac disease, regardless of age. We hoped this letter would remind readers of the importance of physical activity in older people, particularly those with cardiac co-morbidities.
