Shields, G. E., Wright, S., Wells, A., Doherty, P., Capobianco, L., & Davies, L. M. (2021). Delivery preferences for psychological intervention in cardiac rehabilitation: a pilot discrete choice experiment. Open heart, 8(2), e001747

Background: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a programme of care offered to people who recently experienced a cardiac event. There is a growing focus on home-based formats of CR and a lack of evidence on preferences for psychological care in CR. This pilot study aimed to investigate preferences for delivery attributes of a psychological therapy intervention in CR patients with symptoms of anxiety and/or depression.
