“…Regarding the effects of rehabilitation for aortic dissection, intervention in the acute phase is reportedly effective in reducing respiratory complications, suggesting the efficacy of early rehabilitation [15][16][17]. However, patients with aortic dissection need complete bed rest for at least 48 h after onset because there is an increased risk of aortic rupture [1], and there is little evidence of the influences of physical activity and exercise after the period of complete bed rest.…”

Background: Little evidence exists on the effects of exercise guidance in patients with acute aortic dissection after a period of complete bed rest. Few studies have examined changes in skeletal muscle during such periods in patients with cardiovascular disease. This retrospective study sought to investigate changes in skeletal muscle in the standard rehabilitation period in patients with aortic dissection and to discuss an optimal rehabilitation approach to promote safe early return to the community.
