The authors present proofs that a series of rehabilitation exercises put into practice during the hospital stay a patient has favor the rehabilitation and evolution of patients who follow these exercises; furthermore, the authors observed a clear improvement upon hospital release among those patients who performed these exercises compared to a control group which did not perform them. A patient can perform these exercises at home without the need of medical supervision, which reduces medical expenses.
