Frailty reduction in stable heart disease patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a program to reduce frailty in older adults with stable coronary artery disease. The goal is to improve strength and well-being in people who are not having recent heart problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 70 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with coronary artery disease (blockages in heart arteries).
- Your heart disease is stable and you have no chest pain (Canadian Cardiovascular Society Class I).
- You have not had a heart attack, unstable angina, heart procedure, or stroke in the last 6 months.
- You do not have severe heart failure or a heart valve problem causing symptoms.
- You are able to walk and perform daily activities without major limitations.

This trial looks at “frailty,” meaning reduced strength and resilience, in older adults with coronary artery disease who are getting heart care. It may help doctors better understand which patients are more at risk and how care decisions could be improved.
This trial aims to adjust frailty-support activities for people who are physically vulnerable because of heart problems. It may help by creating a plan tailored to your needs, while carefully checking health issues that could make participation unsafe.
This trial tests whether a Spanish health-clinic–guided exercise program can improve frailty in people who are starting to become frail (“pre-frail”). It may help you build strength and walking ability through supervised physical activity.
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can reduce frailty and fall risk in people with chronic heart failure, and what happens when training stops. It may help you feel stronger and more stable.
This study tests whether a combination of tailored exercise classes and comprehensive health assessments can improve strength, function, and overall well-being in older adults who are frail or at risk of becoming frail. You would attend supervised exercise sessions and receive personalized health evaluations at a primary care center.
This study tests a home-based rehabilitation program using video technology to help frail older adults with heart failure improve their strength and function. It aims to see if this type of remote therapy is safe and effective for this group.
