First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a lifestyle program designed to help teens and young adults (ages 15-25) with congenital heart disease become more physically active. Participants will receive a Fitbit, a personalized exercise plan, and education on healthy living. The goal is to see if the program increases moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and improves attitudes toward exercise.

What this could lead to
If successful, this program could help teens and young adults with congenital heart disease become more active and improve their long-term heart health.
What could go wrong
