Summary

A two-group (intervention vs. usual care), randomized controlled design will be used to determine the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention, the Heart2Heart program, and determine efficacy on physical and psychological outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) and caregivers. A total of 20 patients with HF and 20 caregivers (n= 40) will be randomly assigned to the intervention or usual care group stratified by patient and caregiver groups. Only participants in the intervention will be asked to attend the 12-week sessions (two sessions per week; a total of 24 sessions in 12 weeks) via video conferencing (i.e., ZOOM). The short-term intervention efficacy will be assessed following week of the completion of 12-weeks sessions. Primary psychological outcomes include depressive symptoms, anxiety, stress, and quality of life. Primary physical outcomes include physical activity level, sleep quality, and perceived symptoms.

Heart to Heart Yoga

The Heart to Heart Yoga intervention is a therapeutic and standardized form of yoga intervention that is adapted from MediYoga designed to fit the needs of patients with HF and family caregivers who have physical limitations and depressive symptoms and to fit cultural and social norms in Kentucky. The intervention will use a gradual, physical/ psychological yoga adaptation approach, and it will be delivered two times per week (40 -60 minutes per session) via videoconference technology for 12 weeks (total 24 sessions). Real-time, face-to-face, video conferencing technology is used.
