Condition: Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection · Sponsor: University of Leicester
The study aims to examine the feasibility of a remote exercise program in women recovering from spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) events (heart attacks). Heart attacks caused by SCAD are different to the traditional heart attacks. In SCAD a tear happens within the blood vessels causing partial or full blockage. The population affected by SCAD is hugely different to the population affected by other 'traditional' heart attacks; as SCAD mainly happens in otherwise healthy women. From historical cases, SCAD has been associated with strenuous exercise, however, medical research did not find a link. The recovery after SCAD is also very different from other 'traditional' heart attacks. Cardiac rehab programmes are designed for an older population therefore they may not be suitable for a younger predominantly female population. This study will examine if a remote-exercise programme is achievable in people after a SCAD event.
