Heart surgery recovery with early exercise program
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if starting a gentle exercise program soon after heart surgery helps you get stronger and recover faster. If you had planned heart surgery and are stable afterward, this may help you heal better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- Your heart surgery was planned (not an emergency)
- You are stable after surgery (good blood pressure and heart rate)
- This is your first heart surgery (not a redo)
- You did not have a heartbeat problem during your surgery

This study is for people who are getting ready for heart surgery and want to follow a program that helps them prepare and recover. It tests a seamless approach from before surgery through rehabilitation, focusing on exercise and support.
This study tests whether early, home-based rehabilitation (using video calls and remote monitoring) can help older adults recover better after heart surgery. If you join, you'll get rehab sessions starting soon after you go home.
This trial tests if gentle arm exercises with a special blood pressure cuff can help men recover their lung function after heart surgery. It may be an option for those who are stable and ready to follow simple instructions.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program before heart surgery can help adults with congenital heart disease recover better. You would join an exercise class 2–3 times a week for several weeks leading up to your operation.
This study looks at how combining aerobic exercise with strength training can help people recover after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. If you had a successful bypass with no complications and are willing to join a heart rehab program, this trial may be a good fit for you.
This study compares two exercise programs for people who have recovered from heart bypass surgery. One program involves high-intensity interval training, and the other is a home-based rehabilitation program. The goal is to see which program helps improve recovery and overall health.
