Hybrid Group Singing (NCT07355192)

Group Singing (Hybrid Format) or Solo Singing in Older Adults With Coronary Artery Disease: A Feasibility Study

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿง  Behavioral & Psychological Program Sponsor: Medical College of Wisconsin

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The overall objective of the planned future clinical trial is to test the investigator's central hypothesis that habitual singing over several weeks, similar to habitual exercise, will lead to sustained and favorable vascular adaptation, thereby lowering cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. The overall objective of this study is to refine and protocolize the singing interventions and test the feasibility of the future trial design. The investigative team has previously studied solo singing. Collective singing, as in a choir or small group, is associated with a positive sense of social inclusion, well-being, and improved mood, including in older adults.
