Abstract
Participants in a structured post-LTx rehabilitation program improved in functional exercise capacity (6MWD), GS, depression, and anxiety. For frail participants exercise capacity, depression, anxiety, and GS were well managed in rehabilitation with no significant differences between those who were not frail. Pre-LTx frailty may be reversible post-LTx and should not be an absolute contraindication to LTx.
