First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether giving people with heart or lung conditions real-time air pollution data helps them exercise outdoors more safely. 80 participants will use a smartphone platform that tracks their walking and local air quality. The goal is to see if this approach reduces pollution exposure during exercise and is easy for patients to use.
