Developing remote exercise support and rehabilitation for patients after spontaneous coronary artery dissection - a feasibility study

---

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a tear or bruise within the coronary arteries, which can cause a heart attack. It is most common in women in their 40s and 50s.

After a heart attack, most patients are offered a programme of exercise known as cardiac rehabilitation, however, this was not developed or tested on SCAD patients. This project will test the possibility of a clinical trial to explore post-SCAD exercise.

The ultimate goal is to create specific guidelines for exercise in SCAD patients and improve quality of life.t.
