Study summary

In a randomized clinical trial, a comprehensive telerehabilitation system with a prolonged follow-up strategy demonstrated superiority over a control group with centre-based cardiac rehabilitation in terms of physical activity, VO2 max, adherence to a Mediterranean diet, lipid particle profile and cost-effectiveness. The aim of this study is to demonstrate an extension of the benefit to patients with chronic coronary syndrome in primary care.

Read the detailed description

The patients who have suffered an acute coronary event have a recurrence rate of 2.5% to 15.5% person-years during the first year. Control of cardiovascular risk factors can improve the prognosis of these patients. Following the results of a clinical trial to validate a comprehensive monitoring system called Cardioplan, with a prolonged monitoring strategy, The investigators aim to conduct a study in patients with chronic coronary syndrome in the primary care setting comparing a control group with standard follow-up and a 10-month telemonitored group. Four primary care centres will participate. Two health centres attend mainly a population with a medium-high upper socioeconomic level and the other two mainly a population with a medium-low socioeconomic level. A total of 160 subjects are expected to be included in the follow-up, with 80 subjects in each study group. The primary endpoint is to demonstrate that telemonitored follow-up improves functional exercise capacity compared to usual care, by assessing the distance in meters covered in the 6-minute walk test.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    telemonitoring

    Patients in the intervention group will come to the ambulatory centre 2 times, undergoing mobile application training and the same educational talks as in the control group. Subsequently, they will follow the scheduled physical activities and adherence to the risk factor management according to individualised guidelines in their App, until the end of the study period. All data generated are recorded on the professional website. The degree of compliance with the objectives set is monitored by means of 7 coloured icons, which vary according to the target achievement.

    Device: telemonitoring

  • Other
    control follow-up

    Patients in the control group will come to the ambulatory centre only once. The same educational talks as to the intervention group will be given. A conventional outpatient follow-up by primary care and the corresponding specialist will be carried out.

    Other: control follow-up

Interventions

  • Devicetelemonitoring

    The system consists of the following elements: Professional website at the ambulatory centre, which allows: To set up an individualised care plan To establish the patient's risk profile and targets for improvement. Long-term monitoring of the evolution of cardiovascular risk factors and events that occurred Advise the patient on self-management strategies. Mobile application software with the following functions: Scheduled exercise sessions Medication reminder Measurement reminder (weight, blood pressure, heart rate, waist circumference, etc.) Messages: Inbox folder for system messages and messages generated by professionals for a specific patient or video conference. Training monitor: guides the patient in the performance of their exercise. Access to certified health information for patients

  • Othercontrol follow-up

    Patients are instructed to perform 150 minutes per week of moderate physical activity and follow healthy lifestyles
