iATTEND Trial Summary

This trial will assess the efficacy of an innovative approach to cardiac rehabilitation that combines both center-based and remote- or home-based CR sessions.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-85 in the Detroit area who've had a recent cardiac event or have stable heart conditions. They must be able to attend some rehab sessions, do exercises at home, and use internet-connected devices. Exclusions include severe heart issues, advanced cancer, cognitive impairments that limit participation, pregnancy plans within a year, or involvement in another conflicting clinical trial.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an innovative cardiac rehabilitation (CR) approach combining center-based CR with remote/home-based CR tailored to each patient using telemedicine. It aims to improve attendance and maximize the benefits of CR by making it more accessible and personalized.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves exercise and rehabilitation activities rather than medication, side effects may include typical exercise-related risks such as muscle soreness or strain. The specific side effects will depend on individual health conditions.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
The number of CR sessions completed within 6 months will be significantly greater in patients randomized to HYCR vs. patients randomized to traditional CBCR (usual care).
The percentage of patients completing 36 CR sessions within 6 months will be significantly greater among patients randomized to the HYCR program vs. patients randomized to the CBCR program.
Secondary outcome measures
The improvement in exercise capacity, as measured by distance walked during the six min walk (6MW) test, in patients randomized to HYCR will be equivalent (not inferior) to patients randomized to CBCR.
The improvement in exercise capacity, as measured by peak oxygen uptake (VO2), in patients randomized to HYCR will be equivalent (not inferior) to patients randomized to CBCR.
The improvement in quality of life (QOL), as measured by the Short Form Health Survey-12, in patients randomized to HYCR will be equivalent (not inferior) to patients randomized to CBCR.
Other outcome measures
At 6 months after completing CR, explore the effect of a HYCR on exercise capacity as measured by peak oxygen uptake (VO2)
At 6 months after completing CR, explore the effect of a HYCR on quality of life (QOL), as measured by the Short Form Health Survey-12.
