Preliminary Efficacy of a Remote Cardiac Rehabilitation Program in Pediatric Patients With Complex Congenital Heart Disease
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Community-Based Remote Cardiac Rehabilitation Program: The program consists of supervised remote exercise via ZOOM once a week (approx. 60 minutes, including warm-up, aerobic, resistance, respiratory, and cool-down exercises) and self-directed exercise 3 to 7 times a week. Biological signals (ECG, heart rate, SpO2) are monitored using wearable devices (mobiCARE, pulse oximeter, and smartwatch). A respiratory muscle training device (POWERbreathe) is also utilized.
standard of care: Participants will maintain their usual outpatient care, medications, and standard physical activity guidelines for without the remote structured intervention.
Study summary
This study aims to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of a 12-week community-based remote cardiac rehabilitation program on cardiopulmonary function and quality of life in pediatric patients (aged 8 to 18 years) with complex congenital heart disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group receiving the remote cardiac rehabilitation program or a control group receiving the standard of care.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Change in Maximal Oxygen Consumption (VO2 max) — Baseline (Week 0), 12 weeks
Measured by Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test (CPET) using the OSAKA protocol. It assesses the maximal amount of oxygen the body can utilize during exercise.
