Abstract
Over half of the patients hospitalized for CAD have MSKCs. Those with MSKCs have a physical and psychosocial profile that places them at greater cardiovascular risk than those with CAD only, explaining, in part, their greater health care utilization. Despite a greater need for comprehensive risk factor management in patients with MSKCs, fewer were referred to cardiac rehabilitation.
