Does a tailored Internet and mobile phone-based intervention improve the level of physical activity in adult participants of a cardiac rehabilitation programme?
This study protocol outlines a cluster randomized controlled trial to evaluate whether a tailored e-rehabilitation intervention can improve physical activity maintenance after cardiac rehabilitation.
Antypas et al. (2012) conducted an RCT in Cardiovascular Disease (n=255). Tailored Internet and mobile phone-based intervention vs. Basic Internet-based self-management intervention was evaluated on Level of physical activity at one month, three months, and one year after the end of the cardiac rehabilitation program. This paper is a study protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial evaluating a tailored Internet and mobile phone-based intervention for cardiovascular disease self-management, and reports no clinical results.
