Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants allocated in the intervention group will undertake the usual phase II cardiac rehabilitation offered at the University of Auckland Cardiac Rehabilitation Clinic. The cardiac phase II cardiac rehabilitation program will be based on evidence-based guidelines and will be supervised by a certificated clinical exercise physiologist. A modification of two previously used behavioral-based interventions (including education on health consequences of sedentary behaviour, goal setting and advice on how to change the behaviour) will be additionally provided for these participants . The intervention will last 12 weeks. The intervention will consist on 3 educational sessions. The first session will last 30-45 minutes and the other 2 sessions 15 minutes each. The appointment will be in the week 2, 5 and 9 of the program. The different appointments will coincide with the first training day of the week. The intervention will be delivered individually based on the baseline assessments.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 291652 0
Physical Activity/Sedentary Behaviour will be assessed by self-reported measure (SIT-Q-7d ) and accelerometry
Timepoint [1] 291652 0
at baseline, 12 and 16 weeks after completion of the intervention period.
Secondary outcome [1] 307233 0
Quality of life using 36-Item Short Form Health Survey version 2 (SF-36v2) and the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (LIhFE)
Timepoint [1] 307233 0
at baseline, 12 and 16 weeks after completion of the intervention period.
Secondary outcome [2] 307234 0
Anxiety and Depression using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
Timepoint [2] 307234 0
at baseline, 12 and 16 weeks after completion of the intervention period.
Secondary outcome [3] 307235 0
Exercise capcity will be assessed by VO2 using cardiopulmonary exercise testing cycle ergometer
Timepoint [3] 307235 0
at baseline, 12 and 16 weeks after completion of the intervention period.
Secondary outcome [4] 307237 0
Cardiometabolic health will be assessed by a lipid standard panel (triglycerides, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein- HDL and non-HDL) and the glucose level. Low-density lipoprotein will be determined using the Friedewald's formula A commercial available kit (Sigma-Aldrich) will be used for the assessment of the levels of the LPL.
Timepoint [4] 307237 0
at baseline, 12 and 16 weeks after completion of the intervention period.
