NCT03605992

Brief Summary

The proposal of this study is to verify if it is feasible and effective to offer a home based cardiac rehabilitation program, that includes the components of health education and physical exercises mostly unsupervised and oriented by telephone and to compare the treatment adherence, the effects in the functional capacity, and the control of coronary risk factors in relation to the traditional cardiac rehabilitation offered mostly supervised and center based.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in adherence on CR sessions

    it will be analyzed by the percentage of participants which completed the minimum of 75% of the sessions

    after 3 and 6 months of the intervention

Secondary Outcomes (13)

  • Cost

    after 3 and 6 months of the intervention

  • Usability

    For TeleRehab group after 3 months of the intervention

  • Change in morbidity

    after 3 and 6 months of the intervention

  • Change in quality of life

    At baseline, after 3 and 6 months

  • Change in scores of depression

    At baseline, after 3 and 6 months

  • +8 more secondary outcomes

Other: CentreRehab

Interventions

This intervention will have the duration of 12 weeks, with a total of 60 sessions: 2 supervised and 58 at home (to complete five exercise's sessions for week).

Home-based Rehabilitation

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with coronary disease submitted to angioplasty or myocardial revascularization surgery, or that had a heart attack, provided they are considered of a low and moderate risk for the practice of physical exercise of moderate intensity according to the stratification for the risk of events during a cardiovascular rehabilitation program
  • Clinical stability, according with the medical evaluation;
  • Residents of the Belo Horizonte's metropolitan region.

You may not qualify if:

  • Recent cardiac event or clinical decompensation (\<1month);
  • Presence of peripheral arterial occlusive disease with limitation degree that prevents the test of maximum exercise (emergence of claudication before the maximum cardiorespiratory fatigue);
  • Presence of chronic pulmonary disease (i.e. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, pulmonary fibrosis, and pulmonary arterial hypertension of pre capillary etiology);
  • History of ventricular fibrillation or sustained ventricular tachycardia in the last year;
  • Presence of high risk criteria during the ergometric test;
  • Physical, cognitive, or social limitation that prevent the participation in a physical exercise program, and the comprehension of the use of the monitoring device.
