Effects of individualized follow-up with a smartphone-application after cardiac rehabilitation: protocol of a randomized controlled trial
DiscussionTo our knowledge, this will be the first study to examine the effects of individualized follow-up with an app for one year, in patients completing CR. Hence, it is reasonable to assume that the study may be groundbreaking. Due to the large sample size and the theoretically based intervention, the study has the potential to generate new knowledge that may improve the design of future technology-based follow-up interventions of patients that have completed rehabilitation.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov.
