NCT ID NCT07373119

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

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.

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.
