In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Background: Participation in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a strong recommendation of clinical guidelines for the management of heart failure (HF) because it is demonstrated to be a clinically effective and cost-effective intervention. Despite this, Danish data shows the uptake of CR is suboptimal (51%). A major barrier is that the traditional mode of CR provision is centre based. Travelling (time and cost), dislike of group exercise, and inconvenient timings are some key problems to participation. A potential solution is use of home-based programmes as an alternative to traditional CR. A novel home-based programme for patients with HF and their caregivers (REACH-HF), developed in the United Kingdom has achieved improvements in quality of life and proven to be cost effective. The REACH-HF program is translated and adapted into a Danish context (DK: REACH-HF) and is now ready to be test
