Summary

The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to learn if a digital prehabilitation program is feasible in patients awaiting cardiac surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Is the digital health program usable?
2. Is the digital health program acceptable?
3. Do patients adhere to the digital health program?

Researchers will compare a group using the digital prehabilitation program with standard care to see if the program is feasible and explore any differences in health outcomes.

Participants will

* Use a digital health mobile phone application to guide you through exercise, nutrition and preparation for surgery.
* Engage in telehealth consultations.
* Complete questionnaires
* Complete exercise testing
