Mindful Steps: Coupling Technology and Mind-Body Exercise to Facilitate Physical Activity in Patients With Cardiopulmonary Disease
This is a developmental project with two phases. The first phase will adapt an existing
web-based intervention to incorporate mind-body exercises to develop a multi-modal
intervention to promote physical activity in patients with COPD and HF. The second phase will
pilot test this new intervention in a longitudinal study (subjects randomized to intervention
or usual care).
