Cardiac Rehabilitation clinical trials at UCSF
2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
Cardiac rehabilitation is a plan to improve heart health after heart problems. UCSF tests whether a special program in safety net settings helps more than regular care. These studies explore better recovery options for those who have had heart treatments.
Heart Health After Cardiac Treatment Study
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The goal of this study is to determine whether participation in a tailored cardiac rehabilitation program delivered in a safety net setting, compared to usual care referral to an outside cardiac rehabilitation program, results in greater participation in cardiac rehabilitation.

Enhanced SUPport for Initiation and paRticipation in a FOOD is Medicine Program
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The purpose of this research is to see if offering more navigation and text-message support will help increase participation and engagement in a Food is Medicine program. The study will recruit people currently participating in cardiac rehabilitation. People will be randomly assigned to 1 of 4 study groups: navigation, text-messaging, both, or neither. People will complete surveys at the start of the study and after 3 months. After 3 months, we will compare how many Food is Medicine meals or groceries people in each group received.
