Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of three different home-based rehabilitation programs for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This randomized controlled trial will recruit 60 ACS patients, divided into three groups: a 12-week home rehabilitation group, a 6-week tele-rehabilitation followed by 6-week home rehabilitation group, and a 12-week tele-rehabilitation combined with home rehabilitation group. Patients will be assessed at baseline, and at 3, 6, and 12 months on physical health, cardiopulmonary function, and psychological well-being. The hypothesis is that home-based CR, particularly with tele-rehabilitation, will improve recovery and quality of life more effectively. The study aims to identify the most beneficial home rehabilitation strategy for ACS patients.
