Background:Since the reporting of a cluster outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in sports gyms, the Japanese Association of Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) shared a common understanding of the importance of preventing patients and healthcare providers from contracting COVID-19. This questionnaire survey aimed to clarify the status of CR in Japan during the COVID-19 outbreak.Methods and Results:An online questionnaire survey was conducted in 37 Japanese CR training facilities after the national declaration of a state of emergency in 7 prefectures. Among these facilities, 70% suspended group ambulatory CR and 43% suspended cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX). In contrast, all facilities maintained individual inpatient CR. Of the 37 facilities, 95% required CR staff to wear a surgical mask during CR. In contrast, 50% of facilities did not require patients to wear a surgical mask during CR. Cardiac telerehabilitation was only conducted by a limited number of facilities (8%), because this method was still under development. In our survey, 30% of the facilities not providing cardiac telerehabilitation had specific plans for its future use.Conclusions:Our data demonstrate that ambulatory CR and CPX were suspended to avoid the spread of COVID-19. In the future, we need to consider CR resumption and develop new technologies for cardiovascular patients, including cardiac telerehabilitation.

Background: We previously reported the results of a questionnaire survey of 37 cardiac rehabilitation (CR) training facilities conducted during April 2020, in Japan.Methods and Results: We conducted a second questionnaire survey in 38 CR training facilities to explore the preventive measures against Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) after a nationwide state of emergency was declared and to investigate differences between the 2 surveys. No significant differences were observed, except for the requirement for patients to wear surgical masks during CR (P=0.01) in the second survey. Thirty-four facilities (89%) continued CR with innovations, 61% revised their instruction manuals (vs. 46% in the first survey), and, in 39%, patients requested resumption of ambulatory CR and training videos.Conclusions: In the second survey, 74% of facilities were unable to continue conventional group ambulatory CR; however, patients maintained their physical activity and exercise regimens and managed their illnesses with the aid of telephones and mobile devices.
