Issue Date: | 2022 | Publisher: | Elsevier | Source: | TRENDS IN CARDIOVASCULAR MEDICINE, | Status: | Early view | Abstract: | Due to advances in cardiovascular medicine and preventive cardiology, patients benefit from a better prognosis, even in case of significant disease burden such as acute and chronic coronary syndromes, advanced valvular heart disease and chronic heart failure. These advances have allowed CVD patients to increase their life expectancy, but on the other hand also experience aging-related syndromes such as frailty. Despite being underrecognized, frailty is a critical, common, and co-existent condition among older CVD patients, leading to exercise intolerance and compromised adherence to cardiovascular reha- bilitation (CR). Moreover, frail patients need a different approach for CR and are at very high risk for adverse events, but yet are underrepresented in conventional CR. Fortunately, recent advances have been made in technology, allowing remote monitoring, coaching and supervision of CVD patients in secondary prevention programs with promising benefits. Similarly, we hypothesized that such programs should also be implemented to treat frailty in CVD patients. However, considering frail patients’ particular needs and challenges, telerehabilitation interventions should thus be appropriately adapted. Our purpose is to pro- vide, for the first time and based on expert opinions, a framework of how such a cardiac telerehabilita- tion program could be developed and implemented to manage a prevention and rehabilitation program for CVD patients with frailty | Keywords: | Telerehabilitation;Heart disease;Frailty;Digital health;Elderly | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/36620 | ISSN: | 1050-1738 | e-ISSN: | 1873-2615 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.tcm.2022.01.015 | ISI #: | 001034475300001 | Rights: | 2022 Elsevier Inc.
