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 new approach to cardiac rehabilitation for people with heart failure. Instead of going to a clinic for all sessions, the program starts at a health center with doctors, nurses, exercise training, and counseling, then gradually moves to your home over 24 weeks. The goal is to see if this hybrid approach helps people breathe easier, exercise longer, and feel better than traditional clinic-only rehabilitation.
Heart failure is a serious condition that limits how much people can do, and cardiac rehabilitation can help—but many people have trouble attending clinic visits regularly, especially in areas without many resources. This trial wants to find out if a program that moves to your home can work just as well or better than keeping all sessions at the clinic.

If you join this trial, you'll be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Both groups do exercise training and resistance workouts for 24 weeks. The new hybrid program starts with three visits per week at a health center (where you'll work with doctors, nurses, and therapists), then gradually reduces to home-based sessions over four stages. You'll also receive education and emotional support. The traditional program does all sessions at the clinic with continuous aerobic exercise and resistance training. Either way, you'll be checked at the start, at the end of 24 weeks, and again 12 months later to measure your fitness, how much you can do, and your quality of life.
