Abstract

Cardiac rehabilitation at home has been proven to be a valuable alternative for supervised center-based cardiac rehabilitation in certain stages of the recovery and prevention process. Many existing tele-rehabilitation solutions monitor activity through step counting. However, cycling is an underexplored activity in this context. Many people like cycling, and cycling is part of center-based rehabilitation programs. We developed a custom mobile application that guides cardiac patients during cycling to exercise in a safe and enjoyable manner on scenic routes or routes in their neighborhood. In this paper, we present the results of a 4-week field study in which we evaluated the mobile application with 14 cardiac patients. Our study showed that cardiac patients perceive cycling with our system as a recreational and enjoyable activity, are motivated to make longer bike tours than before using the application, and are able to reach the recommended weekly amount of physical activity for cardiac patients.

移动自行车应用程序对心脏病患者骑车行为和享受的影响
在康复和预防过程的某些阶段,家庭心脏康复已被证明是一种有价值的替代监督中心心脏康复。许多现有的远程康复解决方案通过步数监测活动。然而,在这种情况下,骑自行车是一项未被充分开发的活动。许多人喜欢骑自行车,骑自行车是中心康复计划的一部分。我们开发了一个定制的移动应用程序,指导心脏病患者骑自行车时在风景优美的路线或附近的路线上以安全和愉快的方式进行锻炼。在本文中,我们展示了一项为期4周的实地研究的结果,在该研究中,我们评估了14名心脏病患者的移动应用程序。我们的研究表明,心脏病患者将使用我们的系统骑自行车视为一种娱乐和愉快的活动,与使用应用程序之前相比,他们有动力进行更长时间的自行车旅行,并且能够达到心脏病患者推荐的每周运动量。
