Summary

This study tested a virtual world-based cardiac rehabilitation program called 'Destination Cardiac Rehab' against traditional center-based rehab. Over 2,800 adults with heart conditions participated to see if the virtual program could match or beat in-person rehab in improving heart health and keeping patients engaged. The goal was to make rehab more accessible and convenient without sacrificing results.
