Healthy Living Strategies After Acute Pulmonary Embolism
This study, called ERAsE-PE, is looking at whether two different healthy living strategies can help people recover after being hospitalized for a pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lung). You would receive daily texts or emails with instructions for either Healthy Living Intervention-1 or Healthy Living Intervention-2. Researchers want to see if these strategies, along with your regular blood thinner medication, can improve your 'cardiac effort' (how hard your heart works during activity). You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, speak English, and had a recent pulmonary embolism with certain heart changes or elevated blood markers. The study plans to enroll 100 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.
- Study design
- This interventional study aims to enroll 100 participants. It compares two different healthy living strategies.
- What's involved
- You would receive a text or email daily for 8 weeks with instructions for a healthy intervention. Your cardiac effort will be measured at the beginning and after 3 months.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed for at least 3 months after starting the program, as cardiac effort is measured at this time point.

What this trial measures
- Mean change in cardiac effortBaseline and 3 months
Change in cardiac effort is measured as the number of heart beats used during the 6-minute walk test.
