Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Recruitment conducted at Cambridge Cardiac Rehabilitation in Ontario, Canada for both the medication adherence and exercise trial. Potential study subjects are evaluated for inclusion and exclusion criteria, give written informed consent, and are randomized, in a 1:1 ratio, to either intervention or usual care (control).
Patients randomized to the intervention arm in the medication adherence trial receive an automated text message once per day at the time they are prescribed to take their medication. The text message does not contain any personal or pharmacological information.
Patients randomized to the intervention arm in the exercise adherence trial receive four text messages per day at 7:30 am, 12:00 pm, 6:00 pm, and 9:00 pm, reminding them to exercise for 30 minutes per day as per their health care provider.
