Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Summary

This study tests a digital exercise program that adapts in real time to help children aged 6 to 12 recover after congenital heart disease surgery. Kids wear a monitor and get personalized exercise prompts and feedback. Researchers will compare their recovery to children receiving standard care, looking at fitness, heart function, and how well they stick with the program.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Just-in-Time Adaptive Intervention (JITAI)-based digital exercise rehabilitation program
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide an effective, personalized digital rehab tool to help children recover faster and more comfortably after heart surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 130 participants, so results may not apply to all children. The digital program may not work better than standard care, and some children may find it difficult to follow.
