Remote rehabilitation for older adults with heart failure and frailty
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a telehealth (video-based) rehabilitation program for adults 65+ with heart failure who also show signs of frailty—meaning they're experiencing weakness, slowness, or difficulty with daily activities. The program aims to improve strength, function, and quality of life through guided exercises you can do at home.
