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

Summary

This study tests whether personalized support from a sport and health professional after cardiac rehabilitation helps heart failure patients maintain their physical activity levels. 90 participants will be followed for 12 months, with activity measured by a step counter. The goal is to see if tailored coaching can prevent the loss of benefits that often happens when patients return home.

If successful, this approach could help heart failure patients maintain the benefits of cardiac rehabilitation for a longer period, improving their quality of life and reducing hospitalizations.
