Pune: Army Institute of Cardio-Thoracic Sciences gets cardiopulmonary rehab centre
Pune: Lieutenant General AK Singh, Army Commander of Southern Command, inaugurated a ‘Cardio Pulmonary Rehabilitation Centre’ at the Army Institute of Cardio-Thoracic Sciences (AICTS, Pune). It is the first such facility to be developed in an AFMS hospital which offers a holistic Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Programme for patients with heart and lung disease.
The programme is medically supervised, individually tailored and consists of endurance-building exercises, meditation, yoga and education to improve the overall quality of life of such individuals. A multidisciplinary holistic healthcare team comprising physiotherapists, dieticians, yoga teachers, doctors and nurses will help treat these patients with various cardiac and/ or pulmonary disorders who are either recovering after heart or lung surgery/ interventions or have physical limitations due to cardiac or pulmonary disorders.
