title: [Cardiac rehabilitation for heart failure patients].
abstract: The benefits of cardiac rehabilitation for patients with heart failure are well documented: greater capacity during physical effort and improved quality of life, a reduction in comorbidities and in the number and duration of hospitalisations, etc. Physiotherapy is one of the tools of this specific and multidisciplinary care which is governed by protocols and which can be offered on an outpatient basis or during hospitalisation.
