Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY: The benefits of regular physical activity are well-recognized both for men and women and are inversely associated with mortality risk and the incidence of many chronic diseases. The purpose of this observational registry is to evaluate the efficacy of an exercise-based secondary prevention program among male and female outpatients with stable cardiovascular disease.
DESCRIPTION OF THE FUNCTIONAL EVALUATION: During each session, information about weight, height, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, cardiometabolic risk factors, and drug therapy in progress are registered. Physical activity habits are assessed using the Seven-Day Physical Activity Recall questionnaire. In addition, patients complete a sub-maximal test of 1km treadmill walking (1k-TWT), which is performed at a moderate intensity and adjusted according to the patient's perception of fatigue. Patients unable to complete the test at a walking speed ≥ 3.0 km/h can perform the test over 500m or 200m. Based on the results of the test, patients receive indications for the proper execution of a home training program, (i.e., at the same effort perceived in the test). The activity should be done at least 3-4 times per week, preferably every day, for at least 30-60 minutes. All patients are also encouraged to improve their daily habits by opting for a more active lifestyle at home and at work. Written informed consent is required from all participants at the time of enrollment.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Cardiac outpatients
Patients with stable cardiovascular disease who have been referred to the service by their general practitioner or cardiologist
Medical history and functional evaluation
During each session, physical parameters are measured and data on medical history and physical activity are collected. To assess cardiorespiratory fitness, all patients complete a submaximal, moderate, and perceptually regulated treadmill walking test (1k-TWT). Patients unable to complete the test at a walking speed ≥ 3.0 km/h perform the test over 500m or 200m.
Health education
Patients receive recommendations for risk factor management as well as continuous motivational counselling in order to develop and maintain a stable active lifestyle.
