The quality of life, linked to physical, social and mental performance in people with coronary heart disease represents the primary goals in terms of rehabilitation. This is often developed to meet the expected performance standard in order to give the person effective autonomy. However, is the occupational balance always evaluated? and this management adapted? Does occupational therapist, expert in autonomy and independence in multiple illnesses and disabilities, has a major role to play in cardiac rehabilitation? This area of expertise and the application of occupational therapy to coronary patients seems appropriate, if not necessary. However, there are few scientific studies on the need to include occupational therapy within cardiac rehabilitation protocols.
The occupational therapy goals are in line with the theoretical objectives of coronary rehabilitation. At present, there is a lack of data on the benefits of coronary occupational therapy rehabilitation.
Goals : Evaluation of the quality of life of coronary heart patients who have benefited from cardiac rehabilitation optimized by secondary occupational therapy sessions:
Evaluation of aerobic and anaerobic performance of coronary heart patients who have benefited from cardiac rehabilitation optimized by occupational therapy sessions.
Evaluation of aerobic and anaerobic performance of coronary heart patients who have benefited from cardiac rehabilitation optimized by occupational therapy sessions.

Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) needed a cardiac rehabilitation protocol
Exclusion Criteria:
Patient with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) will be included. They will have the cardiac rehabilitation protocol (4 weeks) with occupational therapist as usual practice. The inclusion in this group will be prospective, from January 2021.
Other: cardiac rehabilitation protocol with occupational therapist
Patient with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) will be included. They have done the cardiac rehabilitation protocol (4 weeks) without occupational therapist until december 2020. The inclusion in this group will be retrospective,
Other: cardiac rehabilitation protocol without occupational therapist
cardiac rehabilitation protocol without occupational therapist will be performed (usual practice before January 2021).
This intervention (occupational therapist) have been added since 2021 for all patients who need a cardiac rehabilitation protocol. Occupational therapy is scheduled with sessions 3 times a week for 1 month.
Short Form (SF-36) questionnaire score
The SF-36 is a self-questionnaire to assess the quality of life and contains 36 items with minimum score 0 (bad quality life) and maximum score at 100 (good quality life). Done one week after the end of cardiac rehabilitation protocol
Time frame: week 5
Strength of biceps muscle (Kg)
Measured by handgrip Done one week after the end of cardiac rehabilitation protocol
Time frame: week 5
6 minutes walk test (TM6)
Measured by the distance in metres at the walking time of 6 minutes. Done one week after the end of cardiac rehabilitation protocol
Time frame: week 5
