Study Summary

While cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has been shown to be effective at improving cardiovascular disease (CVD), participation is generally poor. The current feasibility study, will evaluate the impact of a social media intervention on motivation for exercise and adherence to CR sessions. Participants will be randomly assigned to a Facebook™ group or an enhanced education comparison group. The intervention will include access to a private Facebook™ group in which participants will receive weekly educational posts, weekly provider support and have the opportunity to communicate with other cardiac rehabilitation patients. Patients in the comparison group will be given the same educational materials, but these will be supplied in email. Participants will be asked to fill out a pre-post motivational questionnaire and the total number of sessions attended at the end of 3 months will be tallied. This study is grounded in Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and utilizes the Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire (BREQ-2), which is based on the SDT.
