| Summary: | Comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is promising strategy for various cardiovascular diseases. Despite these benefits and the recommendation, adherence to outpatient CR remains low. Home-based CR with telemedicine (tele-CR) is emerging concept that is a good alternative to conventional center-based CR. With the development of e-health and e-Cardiology, real-time telemonitoring of patients’ parameters such as vital signs and supervising by healthcare professionals during exercise training via internet might make it possible for safe and effective tele-CR to be performed. Therefore, the present study reviews the literature to summarize the current situation and methodology of patient telemonitoring in tele-CR.
