NCT ID NCT07158515
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether a personalized 12-week cardiac rehabilitation program, offered in a safety net clinic, helps more heart patients attend rehab compared to the usual referral to an outside program. Researchers will enroll 100 adults who have had a heart attack, surgery, or other heart conditions. The goal is to see if a tailored, supportive approach boosts participation and completion of rehab, which is key for recovery.
