Why the study?

Home-based cardiac telerehabilitation is a potential alternative to center-based programs, but its effectiveness on clinical outcomes and patient-reported quality of life after PCI remains unclear.

Does Home-Based Cardiac Telerehabilitation improve functional capacity and LVEF in patients after PCI?

Comparison

Home-based cardiac telerehabilitation vs usual care

Overview

HBCTR improves functional capacity and cardiac function; reinforces telerehabilitation as viable alternative to center-based programs.

Structured PICO

Does Home-Based Cardiac Telerehabilitation improve functional capacity and LVEF in patients after PCI?

P
Population
1,392 patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) pooled from 12 randomized and non-randomized studies
I
Intervention
Home-Based Cardiac Telerehabilitation (HBCTR)
C
Comparator
Usual care
O
Outcome
6 minute walk test (6 MWT), VO2 max, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)surrogate

Home-based cardiac telerehabilitation is an effective strategy to improve functional capacity, LVEF, and medication adherence in patients following PCI.
