About this study

Official title: The Impact of Video-based Cardiac Rehabilitation Education in Patients With Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Devices(CIEDs)- a Randomized Controlled Trial

Cardiac rehabilitation has the beneficial effects of secondary prevention and social psychological and physical health status in patients with cardiovascular diseases. International and clinical guidelines currently recommend exercise training and rehabilitation for heart failure patients, which can effectively improve mortality and prognosis. However, few of these recommendations have specific recommendations for patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices. Currently the recommendations of cardiac rehabilitation include patients with coronary heart disease (acute coronary heart disease, any coronary revascularization, stable coronary disease or unstable angina), patients with heart failure, after cardiac surgery, and patients with high cardiovascular risk. Many of these patients may be implanted with cardiac implantable electronic devices. In 2011, 938 pacemakers, 140 cardiac resynchronization therapy and 149 implantable cardioverter defibrillators were implanted per million inhabitants in Europe. Therefore, among the groups with cardiac implantable electronic devices, cardiac rehabilitation plays a certain role. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether video-based cardiac rehabilitation health education for patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices has significantly improved physical activity. This study is designed as a prospective, single center, double-blind, randomized controlled trial. Divided into an experimental group and a control group at a ratio of 1:1. The experimental group with cardiac implantable electronic devices will receive cardiac rehabilitation health education video intervention, and the control group will receive only health education. We aim to recruit 45 participants per group with a total of 90 participants.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Device measurement: physical activity

    use Cardiovascular implantable electronic devices to measure, it shows as how many hours of physical activity a day.

    Measured: We collected data on the day of case enrollment and twelve weeks later.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. International Physical Activity Questionnaire

    The total physical activity score is calculated by summing the duration and frequency of vigorous, moderate, and walking activities. Higher scores indicate a higher physical activity. Minimun score is 0 and there isn't a theoretical maximum score.

    Measured: We collected data on the day of case enrollment and between 12 to 24 weeks later.

  2. short-form 36

    SF-36 is used to evaluate the "quality of life", range form 0-100. The survey results are interpreted in two main way: Domain Scores and Summary Scores. Higher scores represent better quality of life.

    Measured: We collected data on the day of case enrollment and between 12 to 24 weeks later.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Device measurement: physical activity (time frame: We collected data on the day of case enrollment and twelve weeks later.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06503445, which also lists 7 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Sep 2026.
