What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This pilot study tested whether a hybrid cardiac rehabilitation program, combining a few clinic visits with mostly home-based telehealth sessions, is feasible for heart attack survivors. Ten participants were enrolled to see if they would join and stick with the program. The study was completed but faced challenges, including a change in the telehealth vendor.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
telehealth-enhanced hybrid cardiac rehabilitation (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If this approach proves feasible, it could offer heart attack survivors a more flexible, home-based option for cardiac rehabilitation, potentially improving access and adherence.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply to larger groups. The intervention was also disrupted by a vendor change, highlighting potential real-world implementation challenges.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. over the age of 18; 2. can speak and read English or Spanish; 3. confirmed ACS based on ICD-10 codes; and 4. had their index event within the past 12 months. Exclusion Criteria: 1. severe disabling chronic medical and/or psychiatric comorbidities determined on a case-by-case basis that prevent safe or adequate participation; 2. high-risk for adverse exercise-related cardiovascular events according to the AACVPR risk stratification criteria; 3. participated in \>1 CR program session; 4. deemed unable to comply with the protocol (either self-selected or indicated during screening that s/he could not complete all requested tasks). This includes, but is not limited to, patients with a level of cognitive impairment indicative of dementia, patients with current alcohol or substance abuse, patients with a significant movement or balance disorder that interferes with walking, patients with impaired circulation or poor perfusion that may impede pulse oximeter readings, and patients with severe mental illness (e.g., schizophrenia); 5. home-based environment deemed incompatible with the protocol and/or that prevent safe or adequate participation (either self-selected or indicated during screening/onboarding process); and 6. unavailable for follow-up for reasons such as terminal illness and imminent plans to leave the United States (as we have migrant or mobile patients due to their citizenship and work issues).
