OBJECTIVE: Digital cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has emerged as a promising alternative to in-person CR. Understanding patients' experiences and perceptions can provide valuable insights into what makes these programmes successful and identify opportunities for improvement. This study aimed to explore patients' experiences of digital CR and to understand the factors that make these programmes successful.
DESIGN: A qualitative approach was taken.
METHODS: From March to August 2022, we conducted semi-structured interviews with patients who were referred to one of two digital CR programmes offered on the island of Ireland. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. A public and patient involvement panel guided the recruitment strategy and assisted with data analysis.
RESULTS: Eleven patients, predominantly male (82%) and with a mean age of 64 (range 50-75), participated in the study. Five themes were developed: (1) Empowered patients; (2) Controlling the recovery; (3) At home but not alone; (4) The world at your (digital) doorstep and; (5) Challenges of interacting online. Participants reported that digital CR equipped them with the necessary tools and support to modify their lifestyle and effectively manage their recovery. However, the opportunities for social interaction were limited and communicating online was not always straightforward.
CONCLUSIONS: Participants reported that digital CR guided them towards recovery and improved their sense of empowerment and control. However, the limited opportunities for social interaction may represent a challenge for patients seeking social support.
