The National Institute of Nursing Research awarded the University of South Florida $714,413 on August 5, 2026, under the Nursing Research program (CFDA 93.361) to conduct a randomized controlled trial evaluating HERBEAT, a mobile health intervention designed to improve secondary prevention outcomes for women with coronary heart disease. The project addresses low participation and completion rates in center-based cardiac rehabilitation among women by testing HERBEAT's capacity to deliver theory-based behavior change techniques through just-in-time adaptive interventions integrated into daily life. The trial will compare HERBEAT against educational usual care across multiple outcomes, with the primary endpoint being improvement in exercise capacity measured by the six-minute walk test at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes include quality of life, physical activity, body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure, tobacco use, medication adherence, depressive symptoms, anxiety, and perceived stress. Period of performance extends from August 5, 2026, through May 31, 2031. Work is performed in Tampa, Florida.
