Home-based Cardiac Rehabilitation in Heart Failure

This study is looking at a home-based cardiac rehabilitation program for people with heart failure. You would use a mobile app called Movn, which provides a 12-week exercise program, along with a Fitbit to track your activity and a blood pressure scale. The study aims to see if this program can help improve outcomes like mortality (death), hospitalizations, and quality of life over 6 months. To join, you need to be an adult (18 or older) who has been hospitalized for acute heart failure in the last year, can do telemedicine visits, and has a smartphone. The study is comparing the Movn program to a control group and is currently unclear about its recruitment status, with a plan to enroll 332 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study that will randomize 332 participants with heart failure to either a 12-week home-based cardiac rehabilitation program using the Movn app or an attention control group.
What's involved
Participants will engage in a 12-week home-based exercise program using the Movn app, an accelerometer (Fitbit), and a blood pressure scale, and participate in telemedicine visits.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Outcomes will be measured over 6 months after starting the program.

  • Composite Hierarchical Endpoint6 months.

    A composite outcome incorporating all-cause mortality, time to first heart failure hospitalization, total heart failure hospitalizations, and a 5-point difference in disease-specific quality of life score as assessed by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ). The KCCQ ranges from 0-100, where 0 indicates worst quality of life and 100 indicates best quality of life.
