What this Trial Is About
The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a web-based nursing intervention aimed at increasing physical activity in people aged 65 years and older with coronary heart disease. This study aims to answer the following questions: 1. What are the needs of older adults living with coronary heart disease in terms of a web-based nursing intervention to help them increase their level of physical activity? 2. What is the acceptability (content, structure, usefulness) and feasibility (recruitment, retention, adherence, fidelity) of a web-based nursing intervention to support older adults living with coronary heart disease as they increase their level of physical activity? 3. What are the preliminary effects of the web-based nursing intervention on the physical activity level and quality of life of older adults living with coronary heart disease? 4. What are the qualitative impacts of the web-based nursing intervention as perceived by older adults on their physical activity level, quality of life, motivation, knowledge and self-efficacy? 5. How can the preliminary effects of a web-based nursing intervention, developed in response to the needs of older adults living with coronary heart disease, be illustrated by its impacts as perceived by older adults post-intervention? A web-based nursing intervention was developed based on the needs of seniors living with coronary heart disease. 30 older adults living with heart disease will take part in the 8-week intervention. The effects of the intervention will be evaluated on the physical activity level, quality of life, knowledge, motivation and self-efficacy of older adults.
