Mindful Steps: Promoting Physical Activity
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
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).
