Summary

This study tests a 13-week remote stress recovery program for people who had a heart attack before age 55 and still feel distressed. The program includes online sessions with a therapist, a workbook, and videos. The goal is to see if a larger trial is possible by checking how many people join, stick with it, and find it helpful.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Remote-delivery Balance in Everyday Life (rBEL) program, a 13-week therapist-supported behavioral stress recovery intervention
What this could lead to
If successful, this could pave the way for a larger trial testing whether a remote stress recovery program improves emotional well-being after a heart attack in younger adults.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study with only 30 participants, so it cannot prove the program works. The main goal is to see if the study procedures are acceptable, not to measure health outcomes.
