RECRUITING

Incorporating Healthy Living Strategies to Aid in Recovery After Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of the ERAsE-PE study is to determine whether two different healthy living strategies (along with anticoagulation) might aid in recovery after a patient is hospitalized for pulmonary embolism. Specifically, Investigators will compare changes in Cardiac Effort (#heart beats used during the 6-minute walk test/walk distance) measured after an 8-week program.
