Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  center based rehabilitation  Frequency: 3 sessions/week (supervised) for 12 weeks (36 sessions). Each session: warm-up (10 min), aerobic training 30–40 min (walking/treadmill/cycle) at 50–70% HRR or Borg 11–14, resistance training 15–20 min (2 sets major muscle groups), cool down and education/counselling, smoking cessation, diet counselling, psychosocial support. Monitoring: ECG telemetry or HR monitoring per center policy; BP pre/post session. 
Intervention  telerehabilitation  Initial in-person assessment (or video assessment) + one supervised session to train equipment and safety. Frequency: equivalent exercise dose — 3 sessions/week prescribed for 12 weeks. Sessions may be live video supervised (1–2/week) + asynchronous sessions (video/telemonitoring) to complete target sessions. Exercise prescription: same FITT principles (warm-up, aerobic 30–40 min at target HR/Borg, resistance training), with individualized progression and remote monitoring (wearable HR monitor + app, or manual Borg reporting). Education delivered via scheduled video sessions, digital handouts, and phone calls. Safety: emergency contact plan, thresholds for stopping exercise, weekly check-in, escalation protocol to local hospital.

Brief Summary  

This study aims to compare the effect of Cardiac telerehabilitation and centre-based cardiac rehabilitation in post-CABG patients. Cardiac rehabilitation is important to improve functional capacity, quality of life, and overall recovery after surgery. But due to some limitation access to centre-based programs is often limited. In this randomised comparative study, medically stable post-CABG patients will undergo either supervised centre-based rehabilitation or a structured telerehabilitation program for 12 weeks. Functional capacity will be assessed using the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), along with quality of life, DASI score, adherence, and safety outcomes. The study seeks to determine whether telerehabilitation is comparable to centre-based rehabilitation in improving recovery after CABG.
