Summary

By using the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA) model as a theoretical backdrop, the proposed study aims to provide a 10-week e-health learning strategies for Chinese cardiac patients, with which they can follow at home after rehabilitation discharge. The current study will examine whether the cardiac rehabilitation patients in intervention group would increase their physical activity (PA) level and fruit-vegetable intake (FVI), improve the social-cognitive variables of PA and FVI, and enhance mental health outcomes in comparison with control condition; and whether the social-cognitive variables would mediate the association between intervention and adopting a healthy lifestyle. The study findings may contribute to the current multiple health behaviour intervention research and support Chinese cardiac patients to maintain rehabilitation outcomes and cultivate a healthy lifestyle.

E-intervention

The 10-week e-health intervention will target HAPA-based social-cognitive variables of PA and FVI. Particularly, Week 1: risk perception and outcome expectancies; Week 2: goal setting; Week 3: development of action plans; Week 4: revision and adjustment of previous action plans; Week 5: development of coping plans; Week 6: revision and adjustment of previous coping plans; Week 7: development of perceived social support; Week 8: revision and adjustment of previous social support. Week 9-10: self-monitoring. Self-efficacy will be a fixed intervention variable involved from week 2 to week 10. Additionally, some behaviour change techniques will be employed in the intervention in order to facilitate the implementation and maintenance of behaviour.
