International feasibility trial on the use of an interactive mobile health platform for cardiac rehabilitation: protocol of the Diversity 1 study

What is it about?

This study will contribute to standardise the international validation of mHealth platforms for chronic disease management. In particular, we want to test use and user's satisfaction of an Australian-validated Cardiac Rehabilitation platform in five different European countries, each one with contextual particularities and traditions at their respective clinical units. The outcomes of this work will be used as a ground for the designing of a large international RCT to evaluate the impact of using mHealth in Cardiac Rehabilitation. Further, this study represents a seed to create an international network of eHealth dedicated Cardiology centres aimed to share experiences and conduct research collaboration in the e-Cardiology domain.
