eHealth-based cardiac rehabilitation
The 12-wk case manager-led eHCR program includes: 1. Individualized exercise prescription according to the results of cardiopulmonary exercise test. 2. At least one session of in-person physical therapy to familiarize participants with the process of exercise training before the initiation of telerehabilitation. 3. Telerehabilitation: a 30-minute moderate aerobic exercise training with remote monitoring and instruction using video conferencing. (Frequency: twice per week in the first 4 weeks, once per week in the 5th-8th week, once every 2 weeks in the 9th-12th week) 4. Additional self-exercise to achieve the target volume of 150-minute moderate aerobic exercise and 2 sessions of resistance training per week. 5. Patient education for secondary prevention delivered regularly via a communication app on the smartphone. 6. Weekly follow-up call from a case manager via phone call or communication app.
