Interventions
Cardiac telerehabilitation (video consultation and home monitoring)
Patients with cardiac disease and earlier experiences with cardiac rehabilitation, family members, and nurses in the Departments of Cardiology at Amager and Hvidovre Hospital will be invited to work in a partnership and through a course of innovative co-creative workshops. It is recommended that usability studies have 5-15 participants, which is why we plan to enroll 3 cardiac patients, 3 relatives and 3 nurses from the outpatient clinic. Through the workshops, a rehabilitation program offering cardiac telerehabilitation will be co-created to comply with the preferences and perspectives of patients and family members and nurses from the outpatient clinic. Through these workshops we will learn which important components and elements should be prioritized when offering cardiac telerehabilitation (how, when, and why?).
