Intervention group:
Participants receive remote rehabilitation once per week using a tablet device and video communication (FaceTime or Skype). Vital signs are measured prior to exercise to confirm safety. Patients also perform home-based exercises using provided instructional videos.
Common procedures:
Both groups undergo activity monitoring using a wearable device (Fitbit).
Randomization is conducted using a stratified permuted block method with BMI as the stratification factor, implemented through an Interactive Web Response System (IWRS; RedCAP).
Control group:
Participants perform self-directed training based only on exercise instruction. Exercise adherence is reviewed during routine outpatient visits, and additional instruction is provided as needed.
