No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will be a pilot prospective randomized study using a peer mentor with or without Transcendental Meditation as compared to usual care for men and women with a new diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The study is designed to explore between cohort comparisons of perceived stress and a number of additional outcomes. The results of this pilot study will be used in the design of larger future trials.

The target population is adult men and women with a new diagnosis of CAD made on the basis of a myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization procedure, acute coronary syndrome, or imaging test suggestive of CAD.

The overall hypothesis of this proposal is that the addition of a peer mentor and training in Transcendental Meditation to usual care will improve perceived stress and medication adherence for men and women with newly diagnosed CAD as compared with usual care.
