First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a web-based app called IAMABLE that provides evidence-based rehabilitation strategies for people with chronic conditions like heart disease, arthritis, or neurological disorders. Fifty adults aged 45 to 75 will use the app for 4 months to set goals and learn about exercise, pain management, and fall prevention. The goal is to see if the app helps improve function and quality of life, and to determine if a larger trial is feasible.
