Bike interval training for teens with repaired heart defects
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests a structured “interval” bike exercise program to see if it’s safe and helpful for teens with certain repaired congenital heart conditions. It may help improve fitness while closely monitoring heart symptoms during training.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 10 to 18
- You had a heart defect that has been repaired (not still needing repair)
- Your home has enough space for the bike exercise setup
- You can speak and understand English well enough for program sessions
- A heart doctor has not told you to avoid exercise
- You do not have recent dangerous rhythm issues or low oxygen levels

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a home-based, short bursts exercise program (HIIT using the MedBIKE™ system) for children who had a heart transplant at least 6 months ago. It may help improve fitness and safety after transplant, while checking which kids can participate without heart rhythm or symptom problems.
This study uses an MRI while exercising to check heart and lung fitness in children with heart disease. It helps doctors learn more about how to care for kids who have had a heart transplant or were born with heart problems.
This study tests whether high-intensity interval training (short bursts of intense exercise) can improve heart function and fitness in people who have a surgical tube (conduit) connecting their right ventricle to their pulmonary artery. It aims to find a safe and effective exercise program for those with this type of congenital heart condition.
This trial tests a combined heart and brain rehabilitation program for young people with moderate to complex congenital heart disease. The goal is to improve both heart health and thinking skills, such as memory and attention.
This trial tests a home-based cardiac rehab program for adolescents with certain types of congenital heart disease. It aims to help you exercise safely and improve your fitness using online coaching and monitoring.
This study tests if a home-based exercise program using a Fitbit can help teens who had chemotherapy improve their heart and lung fitness. You would exercise at home, track your activity, and have monthly virtual check-ins for 6 months.
