Preliminary Efficacy of a Community-Based Remote Cardiac Rehabilitation Program on Cardiopulmonary Function and Quality of Life in Pediatric Patients With Complex Congenital Heart Disease: A Single Blind, Randomized Controlled Trial

This study aims to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of a 12-week community-based remote cardiac rehabilitation program on cardiopulmonary function and quality of life in pediatric patients (aged 8 to 18 years) with complex congenital heart disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group receiving the remote cardiac rehabilitation program or a control group receiving the standard of care.

Armas e Intervenções

Grupo de Participantes / Braço
Intervenção / Tratamento
Experimental: Remote Cardiac Rehabilitation Group
Participants randomly assigned to this group will receive a 12-week remote cardiac rehabilitation program followed by a 12-week follow-up period (total 24 weeks).
The program consists of supervised remote exercise via ZOOM once a week (approx. 60 minutes, including warm-up, aerobic, resistance, respiratory, and cool-down exercises) and self-directed exercise 3 to 7 times a week. Biological signals (ECG, heart rate, SpO2) are monitored using wearable devices (mobiCARE, pulse oximeter, and smartwatch). A respiratory muscle training device (POWERbreathe) is also utilized.
Participants will maintain their usual outpatient care, medications, and standard physical activity guidelines for without the remote structured intervention.
Comparador Ativo: Control Group
Participants randomly assigned to this group will receive the standard of care for 24 weeks. After the 24-week evaluation, they will be offered a 1-month exercise education program opportunity.
Participants will maintain their usual outpatient care, medications, and standard physical activity guidelines for without the remote structured intervention.
