Cardiovascular disease is the most pervasive health problem for men and women in the U.S. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 25 million Americans have been diagnosed with heart disease. Heart disease encompasses a variety of conditions, including abnormal heart rhythms, adult congenital heart disease, coronary artery disease, heart attack, heart failure and valve disease.

UT Southwestern Medical Center’s cardiac rehabilitation program offers some of the most advanced rehabilitation and interventional therapies available to treat all forms of heart disease. Our clinicians, researchers and rehabilitation specialists have made important contributions to improving the lives of patients, as well as developing innovative techniques that have advanced the treatment of cardiovascular disease.

Patients can play a major role in preventing the development or progression of heart disease, by understanding risk factors and what actions to take to minimize the likelihood of developing a cardiovascular disorder.
