This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a web-based program that combines online support with one-on-one help from a nurse to encourage older adults with heart disease to become more physically active. The program includes 8 weekly online sessions designed to boost motivation, confidence, and knowledge about exercise after heart surgery or related procedures. Researchers want to understand whether this approach is helpful and realistic for older people recovering from heart problems.
Many older adults with heart disease struggle to stay physically active after treatment, even though activity is crucial for recovery. Doctors recognize that older patients often prefer working with a trusted healthcare professional like a nurse, but most online programs don't offer this personal connection—so this trial aims to fill that gap.
