About this study

Cardiovascular diseases constitute one of the most critical health problems of today's society due to the loss of workforce, morbidity, mortality, and high hospital expenses.

This study was planned to investigate the effectiveness of technology-based and traditional cardiac rehabilitation programs in individuals with coronary artery disease.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with coronary artery disease
  • Access to the online program
  • Volunteering to participate in the research
  • Having an iOS or Android operating system compatible phone

Exclusion criteria

  • Having a musculoskeletal problem
  • Having uncontrolled hypertension
  • Having chronic heart failure (NYHA III-IV)
  • A history of acute coronary syndrome or surgical revascularization less than 12 months ago
  • More than 50% occlusion on the main coronary artery
  • Having arrhythmia

Treatment and study plan

Physiotherapist supervised exercise training

Other

Exercise training for 12 weeks will be given by video talk accompanied by a physiotherapist.

Exercise training via phone app

Other

Exercise training for 12 weeks will be given over the developed phone application.

Physical activity recommendations

Other

The program will be consist of 12 weeks of physical activity recommendations.

Primary outcomes

  1. Exercise Capacity

    Time frame: Baseline, after 12 weeks, after 24 weeks

    Exercise capacity will be evaluated using the incremental shuttle walk test.

  2. Participation

    Time frame: after 12 weeks

    Participation will be evaluated using the number of sessions attended.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Maximal Effort Capacity

    Time frame: Baseline

    Maximal effort capacity will be evaluated using a cardiovascular stress test.

  2. Peripheral muscle strength

    Time frame: Baseline, after 12 weeks, after 24 weeks

    Peripheral muscle strength will be evaluated using the dynamometer.

  3. Endothelial function

    Time frame: Baseline, after 12 weeks, after 24 weeks

    The endothelial function will be evaluated using echocardiography. After a resting baseline, Brachial artery diameter will be recorded, the cuff used in blood pressure measurement will be inflated 25-50 mmHg above the systolic blood pressure value and maintain that pressure for 5 min. The brachial artery diameter will be measured again after the cuff is deflated.

  4. Healthy Living Habit Evaluation

    Time frame: Baseline, after 12 weeks, after 24 weeks

    Healthy living habit evaluation will be evaluated using the Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale-II.

  5. Health-Related Quality of Life

    Time frame: Baseline, after 12 weeks, after 24 weeks

    Health-Related Quality of Life will be evaluated using the Myocardial Infarction Dimensional Assessment Scale (MIDAS).

  6. QoL

    Time frame: Baseline, after 12 weeks, after 24 weeks

    Quality of life will be evaluated using the SF-36 Short Form.
