Resumo

Cardiac rehabilitation in the hospitalization phase, in patients scheduled for surgery, has progressed over the years. Based on the knowledge and scientific evidence that a more dynamic physiotherapy intervention favors a quicker recovery from surgery, and reduces postoperative complications and hospital stay, it is the aim of this paper to update the physiotherapy intervention protocol of our hospital. Educational and informational aspects were established in the preoperative stage, as well as the teaching of techniques and breathing exercises, and a psychological intervention. Also, an exercise routine is presented according to the different stages, and the use of variables to control the physical fitness session. Updating the action protocol from the preoperative stage to the moment of hospital discharge will help unify work strategies and criteria in the hospital phase of the national rehabilitation program for cardiac surgery.
