Summary

This study tests whether a 12-session physiotherapy program can improve frailty in people aged 70 and older with stable coronary heart disease. Participants will do guided exercises and mobility techniques led by physiotherapists. Researchers will also check medications, diet, and lab results. The goal is to see if this approach can help older heart patients maintain strength and balance.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: physiotherapy (guided exercises and mobility techniques)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could point toward a simple, non-drug way to help older heart patients stay stronger and more stable.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program may not significantly improve frailty or prevent falls.
