In response to a request from the Australian Federal Minister for Health seeking advice on priorities to address cardiac rehabilitation and secondary prevention of heart disease, a Strategy Roundtable was held on 16 October 2019 at Canberra’s Shine Dome in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). The overarching purpose was to convene and document a whole-of-nation discussion amongst consumers, policy-makers and multidisciplinary experts to identify actionable research and implementation priorities addressing gaps in secondary prevention and cardiac rehabilitation across Australia that align with the six ACvA flagships.
