Restorative Care

Restorative Care

Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Cardiovascular Rehabilitation
Sports Medicine
Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

Cardiac telerehabilitation (CTR) offers accessible remote services but often overlooks the specific needs of athletes with coronary artery disease.
Existing CTR interventions may not adequately address the values and requirements of athletic subpopulations.
Understanding athletes' perspectives is crucial for designing engaging and effective CTR technologies.

Purpose of the Study:

To identify the values of athletes with coronary artery disease concerning cardiac rehabilitation (CR).
To determine high-level technology requirements for CTR systems tailored to athletes.
To inform the design of user-centered CTR interventions for athletic populations.

Main Methods:

Employed value-sensitive design and human-centric approaches.
Conducted semistructured interviews with 15 athletes and 10 healthcare professionals to identify values.
Utilized card-sorting focus groups with 13 patients and 7 healthcare professionals to define CTR features.

Main Results:

Identified 12 distinct athlete values across body, care, and data/technology-centric categories.
Defined CTR technology requirements, including sport-specific training monitoring and data visualization alongside clinical limits.
Paired identified values with specific CTR technology requirements.

Conclusions:

Athletes possess unique values and health objectives in CR compared to the general population.
Patient-centric CTR interventions are essential for athletes' recovery and safe return to sport.
Tailored CTR technologies are vital for enhancing adherence and effectiveness in the home environment.
