Wearable activity coaching after heart surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a personalized activity program and coaching after heart surgery, using wearable sensors to track movement. It may help you recover more safely and move in a goal-directed way during rehabilitation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
