Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Adherence expressed as duration (duration of participant's use of the Telehealth tool), volume (volume of weekly exercise) and latency (time between final examination and date of participant's last login). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| all end points assessed 6 months after beginning of the intervention: maximal oxygen uptake (VO2peak) measured via gas exchange analysis during ergometer based exercise testing. For the assessment of the PROCAM risk score: Total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, fasting glucose and hsCRP via standardized laboratory assays on venous blood samples taken in the morning following a 12-hour fast. Blood pressure measured via oscillometric method. Body composition (body fat mass, lean mass, body water) measured via multi-frequency phase-sensitive bioimpedance analysis. | — |
