NCT01909349

Brief Summary

Persons undergoing cardiac rehabilitation often have difficulties transferring the learned health behaviors into their daily routine which decreases their health status. Computer-based tailored interventions have been shown to be effective in increasing physical activity as well as fruit and vegetable consumption. The aim of this study is, to support people in transferring these two learned behavior changes and their antecedents into their daily life after cardiac rehabilitation in Germany, the Netherlands and China. The primary goal of the study is to analyze the effectiveness of a rehabilitation aftercare program with regard to the level of physical activity and nutrition.
