CR enrollment rates were compared between patients with and without MSLs.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> Three hundred and twenty-one (37%) of patients contacted responded to our survey, including 228 males (71%), with a mean age 68 \u00b1 10.8 years, of whom 98% were Caucasian. Eighty-two percent of responders reported a musculoskeletal disorder at the time of hospital discharge. Arthritis was the most frequent diagnosis (45%). Muscle or joint pain sufficient to limit the ability to do moderate exercise was reported in 52% of the respondents. Problems with balance affected 37%, of whom 45% reported a fall within the previous year. No significant difference in CR enrollment was observed in respondents with and without MSLs [OR = 0.98, 95% CI (0.88\u20131.09), <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.750]. Similar results were found when severity and number of MSLs were taken into account. However, we found that when compared to those without MSLs, the presence of MSLs was associated with lower CR participation (OR = 0.80, 95%, CI: 0.65\u20130.97, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.0252).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> Despite a high prevalence of MSLs among CR-eligible patients, we found no association between MSLs and CR enrollment. However, patients with MSLs attended significantly fewer CR sessions as compared to patients without them. CR programs should consider providing additional support and interventions to patients with MSLs in order to optimize their adherence to prescribed CR sessions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fcvm.2021.688483","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,28]],"date-time":"2021-06-28T04:43:28Z","timestamp":1624855408000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Impact
