Home-Based Cardiac Rehab with Telemedicine Study

This study is looking at how well a home-based cardiac rehabilitation program works, using telemedicine (virtual healthcare visits). It's for people who have recently had a heart attack (myocardial infarction), a procedure to open blocked heart arteries (percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty), heart bypass surgery (coronary artery bypass), or have stable angina or heart failure. The program uses a device called the ROMTech Portable Connect to help with exercise. Researchers want to see if this approach is practical, effective, and if people stick with it. They will measure things like how many sessions you attend and complete, and your activity level using the Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) over 12 weeks. You can join if you are over 18, have mild to moderate heart failure symptoms (NYHA Functional Class I, II), and recently had a heart revascularization procedure.

Study design
This is an observational study planning to enroll 500 participants. The study type and status are currently unclear.
What's involved
You will have 36 rehabilitation sessions, which include pre-session questions, surveys, vital sign checks, and exercises. These sessions will occur over 12 weeks.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your progress will be measured at the beginning of the study and again at 12 weeks (end of treatment).
