About this study

Official title: Cardiac Telerehabilitation Versus In-person After Acute Coronary Syndrome: Randomized Clinical Trial TELECOR Study

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate wether a cardiac Telerehabilitation programme is as effective as an in-person rehabilitation program after acute coronary syndrome in the control of cardiovascular risk factors

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate wether a cardiac Telerehabilitation programme is as effective as an in-person rehabilitation program after acute coronary syndrome in the control of cardiovascular risk factors via the following variables: % patients with a positive result in the composite variable integrating different targets for secondary prevention in cardiovascular disease and lifestyle habits; Adherence to cardiac rehabilitation program; Adherence to pharmacological treatment; Quality of Life improvement ; Anxiety and depression; Satisfaction rate; Functional capacity; Cardiac cause hospitalization; Emergency visits; and Angioplasty revascularization procedure.

Being tested
Experimental: Cardiac tele-rehabilitation, Other: Control, in person cardiac rehabilitation

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Experimental: Cardiac tele-rehabilitationBehavioural

    Patients will connect to their health care provider via a tele-call

  • Other: Control, in person cardiac rehabilitationBehavioural

    Patients will attend an ambulatory cardiac rehabilitation unit

What is being measured

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

  1. % patients with a positive result in the composite variable integrating different targets for secondary prevention in cardiovascular disease and lifestyle habits

    Variable for Cardiovascular Risk Factor Control: Composite Variable Integrating Different Targets for Secondary Prevention in Cardiovascular Disease and Lifestyle Habits

    1. Blood pressure <140/90 mmHg
    2. Maintaining normal weight or a 5% reduction in body weight if BMI > 25 kg/m2
    3. Abdominal circumference <88 cm in women and <102 cm in men
    4. LDL <50 mg/dl and a reduction of >50% in initial LDL levels
    5. Smoking cessation
    6. Adherence to a heart-healthy diet (PREDIMED Questionnaire* ≥7)
    7. Adherence to physical activity level: 6,000-10,000 steps/day or moderate-high IPAQ** result (International Physical Activity Questionnaire)

    Measured: • (%) [Time Frame: 0-2months +- 30 days-6 months +-7days]

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Adherence to cardiac rehabilitation program

    % of patients adherent to cardiac rehabilitation program

    Measured: 2 months +-30 day

  2. Adherence to pharmacological treatment

    Adherence to pharmacological treatment by Morinsky Green Questionnaire, Dichotomous variable: yes means adherent to treatment wich is a better score and no means non adherent to treatment wich is a worse score.

    Measured: 0-2months +- 30 days-6 months +-7days

  3. Quality of Life improvement

    Quality of Life by EuroQol-5D questionnaire. EuroQoL-5D index (0-1) 0: Represent the worse state of Health, equivalent to death.

    1: Represents the best state of Health ( no problems in any dimension of the questionnaire).

    Measured: 0-2months +- 30 days-6 months +-7days

  4. Anxiety and depression

    Anxiety and depression by Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). HAD Questionnaire:

    0-42: Higher values are worse than lower values.

    Measured: 0-2months +- 30 days-6 months +-7days

  5. Satisfaction rate

    Satisfaction rate with the program, Scale 0-100 (%); 0-100%: Higher values are better than lower values

    Measured: 2months +- 30 days

  6. Functional capacity

    Functional capacity by cardiac stress test (METS)

    Measured: 0-2months +- 30 days

  7. Cardiac cause hospitalization

    Cardiac cause hospitalization

    Measured: 6 months +-7days

  8. Emergency visits

    Emergency visits

    Measured: 6 months +-7days

  9. Angioplasty revascularization procedure

    Angioplasty revascularization procedure. Further coronary angiography during follow up Yes: is worse No: is better

    Measured: 0-2months +- 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Experimental: Cardiac tele-rehabilitation in people with Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) and Cardiac Rehabilitation, run by Germans Trias i Pujol Hospital at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

% patients with a positive result in the composite variable integrating different targets for secondary prevention in cardiovascular disease and lifestyle habits (time frame: • (%) [Time Frame: 0-2months +- 30 days-6 months +-7days]). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 24 Feb 2025.
