Title: Feasibility of a Social Media Intervention for Exercise Motivation and Cardiac Rehabilitation Adherence
Brief Summary: While cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has been shown to be effective at improving cardiovascular disease (CVD), participation is generally poor. The current feasibility study, will evaluate the impact of a social media intervention on motivation for exercise and adherence to CR sessions. Participants will be randomly assigned to a Facebook™ group or an enhanced education comparison group. The intervention will include access to a private Facebook™ group in which participants will receive weekly educational posts, weekly provider support and have the opportunity to communicate with other cardiac rehabilitation patients. Patients in the comparison group will be given the same educational materials, but these will be supplied in email. Participants will be asked to fill out a pre-post motivational questionnaire and the total number of sessions attended at the end of 3 months will be tallied. This study is grounded in Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and utilizes the Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire (BREQ-2), which is based on the SDT.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* All male and female patients who are current and regular Facebook™ users, 18 years of age or older, have qualified for cardiac rehabilitation (diagnosed with cardiovascular disease), and are entering cardiac rehabilitation at the Main Campus of the Cleveland Clinic, will qualify for the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Participants must be able to exercise to the extent that they can take part in cardiac rehabilitation, must live within 100 miles and must be able to read and speak English.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

(i) men and women with CVD (ischemic heart disease, atrial fibrillation, heart failure and patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator); (ii) at least 18 years of age; (iii) own, or have regular access to, either a smartphone (Android or iOS operating system), tablet or laptop/desktop computer; and (iv) able to understand English.

Exclusion Criteria:

(i) patients with planned surgical intervention (will be approached after surgery); (ii) another household member in the study; and (iii) unable to provide informed consent.
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Any condition indicated for cardiac rehabilitation: Acute coronary syndrome, percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass graft +/- valve surgery or procedure (e.g., TAVI), heart transplant, ventricular assist device, heart failure, arrhythmia, rhythm device (i.e. implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, cardiac resynchronization therapy, pacemaker), congenital heart disease, minor non-disabling stroke or transient ischemic attack (i.e., can ambulate), peripheral vascular disease
* Proficiency in English language

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, visual, cognitive or non-dysphoric psychiatric condition, or any serious or terminal illness not otherwise specified which would preclude CR eligibility based on CR guidelines
* Being discharged to long-term care
* Inability to ambulate (i.e. walk unaided at 2mph)
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients diagnosed with atrial fibrillation.
* Relative to patient with atrial fibrillation.
* To be over 18 years old .

Exclusion Criteria:

* Unwillingness to participate in the study.
* Other complicating illness'.
* Language difficulties that prevent answering surveys.
* Participation in another study.
* Accommodation outside the hospital's catchment area.
