First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new health management program for people with coronary heart disease who also have frailty (weakness, low energy). The program uses a mobile app to guide exercise and healthy habits, with support from a cardiac rehab center. Researchers will enroll 200 participants to see if the program improves walking distance, quality of life, and frailty scores over time.
