Web-based nursing intervention : Ch@ngeons Ensemble
The web-based nursing intervention, named "Ch@ngeons Ensemble," was designed to increase physical activity and quality of life among older adults living with CHD. The intervention will be multicomponent, including educational content, videos, forums, goal planning, an electronic physical activity journal, and virtual written interactions with a nurse. An initial in-person meeting with the nurse will be provided to foster the older adult's commitment to the intervention and help build a relationship of trust. Throughout the intervention, the nurse will asynchronously provide counseling, feedback, and encouragement, and attempt to promote quality of life, knowledge, motivation, and self-efficacy among the older adults.

The trial’s own eligibility text, word for word from the registry. Only the trial site can say who takes part.
Inclusion
- +aged 65 years or older
- +no concurrent involvement in an intervention designed to increase their level of physical activity (e.g., a cardiac rehabilitation program, consultation with physical activity expert) during their participation in the project
- +an interest in increasing their level of physical activity post-hospitalization
- +fluency in French, spoken and written
- +living in the greater Montreal area
- +access to a computer connected to the Internet
- +no cognitive impairments according to the patient record (i.e., decreased or impaired complex attention, executive functions, learning abilities, memory or social skills)

About This Trial
The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a web-based nursing intervention aimed at increasing physical activity in people aged 65 years and older with coronary heart disease. This study aims to answer the following questions: 1. What are the needs of older adults living with coronary heart disease in terms of a web-based nursing intervention to help them increase their level of physical activity? 2. What is the acceptability (content, structure, usefulness) and feasibility (recruitment, retention, adherence, fidelity) of a web-based nursing intervention to support older adults living with coronary heart disease as they increase their level of physical activity? 3. What are the preliminary effects of the web-based nursing intervention on the physical activity level and quality of life of older adults living with coronary heart disease? 4. What are the qualitative impacts of the web-based nursing intervention as perceived by older adults on their physical activity level, quality of life, motivation, knowledge and self-efficacy? 5. How can the preliminary effects of a web-based nursing intervention, developed in response to the needs of older adults living with coronary heart disease, be illustrated by its impacts as perceived by older adults post-intervention? A web-based nursing intervention was developed based on the needs of seniors living with coronary heart disease. 30 older adults living with heart disease will take part in the 8-week intervention. The effects of the intervention will be evaluated on the physical activity level, quality of life, knowledge, motivation and self-efficacy of older adults.
