EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention group who shall be subject to 20 minutes of IVR using the MORPHEUS programme, software developed by the Faculty of Information and Technology, when carrying out cycle ergometry during the 6 - week, bi-weekly CR programme. These patients shall carry out 10 minutes of warm up by cycling without IVR, followed by 20 minutes of cycling while wearing the headset with IVR input, followed by another 10 minutes of cool down without IVR input. The duration of 20 minutes input time was based on recommendations set by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, UK (2020) to prevent motion sickness.

Model Details: A minimum of 20 patients undergoing phase 3 of CR shall be recruited in this study. All patients who are suffering from any cardiac condition or have had a cardiac event and are referred for cardiac rehabilitation are eligible to participate. Patients with Atrial Fibrillation, those with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator or a pacemaker and any patients known to suffer from Vertigo shall be excluded from the study. Those patients showing an interest in participating shall be offered information about what the study entails by the intermediary, this being the cardiac rehabilitation nurse. Upon consenting, general baseline demographic data including age, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), gender and drug history will be collected. The participants shall then be randomly assigned into two groups being: the control group who shall receive the usual CR programme without the addition of VR, and the intervention group who shall be subject to 20 minutes of IVR2
