Digital exercise program for heart failure after a heart attack
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a digital program (called HeartMed-HF) that uses a smartphone to guide your exercise and recovery after a recent heart attack, to help improve your exercise capacity. If you have heart failure after a heart attack, this program might help you feel stronger and do more in your daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
