Cardiac rehabilitation is an individualized outpatient program of physical exercises and medical education designed to accelerate recovery and improve health status in heart disease patients. In this study, we aimed for assessment of patients' perception of the involvement of technology and remote monitoring devices in cardiac recovery. During the Living Lab Phase of the Virtual Coaching Activities for Rehabilitation in Elderly (vCare) project, we evaluated eleven patients (five heart failure patients and six ischemic heart disease patients). Patient admission in the UMFCD cardiology clinical department served as a shared inclusion criterion for both study groups. In addition, the presence of II or III heart failure NYHA stage status was considered an inclusion criterion for the heart failure study group and patients diagnosed with ischemic heart disease for the second one. We conducted a system usability survey to assess the patients' perception of the system's technical and medical functions. The survey had excellent preliminary results in the heart failure study group and good results in the ischemic heart disease group. The limited access of patients to cardiac rehabilitation in Romania has led to increased interest and motivation in this study. The final version of the product is designed to adapt to patient needs and necessities; therefore, patient perception is necessary.
心脏康复是一项针对心脏病患者的个性化门诊项目，包括体育锻炼和医学教育，旨在加速康复并改善健康状况。在本研究中，我们旨在评估患者对技术和远程监测设备在心脏康复中作用的认知。在老年康复虚拟指导活动（vCare）项目的生活实验室阶段，我们评估了11名患者（5名心力衰竭患者和6名缺血性心脏病患者）。两个研究组的共同纳入标准是患者入住UMFCD心脏病临床科室。此外，NYHA心功能II级或III级被视为心力衰竭研究组的纳入标准，而确诊为缺血性心脏病的患者则被纳入第二个研究组。我们进行了系统可用性调查，以评估患者对系统技术和医疗功能的认知。该调查在心力衰竭研究组取得了优异的初步结果，在缺血性心脏病组取得了良好的结果。罗马尼亚患者获得心脏康复的机会有限，这导致了对本研究的兴趣和积极性增加。产品的最终版本旨在适应患者的需求；因此，患者的认知是必要的。
