No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will examine the impact of cardiac rehabilitation on blood vessel health using a newly developed microfluidic-based tactile sensor to assess blood vessel health. The participants will have their blood vessel health measured using a sensor that is placed on top of the skin over the artery before and after exercise (1, 3, 5, 10, 30 and 60 mins). The investigators will study these responses at the first session of cardiac rehabilitation and following 1 and 4 weeks of cardiac rehabilitation (sessions 3 and 6). The investigators will also collect some information from the medical record regarding: age, gender, body mass index, resting cardiovascular measures (heart rate, blood pressure etc), medications, reasons which qualified the participant into cardiac rehabilitation, blood tests related to heart or cardiovascular function, metabolic panel, lipid panel, echocardiogram results, recorded electrocardiogram, known vascular diseases, presence of implantable devices, Seattle Heart Failure Model data and cardiovascular measures and exercise workloads during cardiac rehabilitation.
