Why the study?
Are home-based physical activity programs as feasible as supervised, clinic-based programs for adherence in patients with chronic conditions?
Are home-based physical activity programs as feasible as supervised, clinic-based programs for adherence in patients with chronic conditions?
Home-based aerobic physical activity programs appear as feasible as supervised clinic-based programs for sustaining adherence in patients with chronic conditions including cardiovascular disease.
Home-based programs match supervised ones for sustaining adherence in chronic conditions; confirms feasibility equivalence and supports wider cardiovascular rehabilitation access.
The current evidence suggests that people with chronic conditions are capable of sustaining aerobic physical activity for 3+ months, as a form of treatment. Moreover, home-based programs may be just as feasible as supervised, clinic-based physical activity programs.
