To resolve this issue, home-based programs for cardiac rehabilitation have arisen as a potential solution. In this work, we present an approach based on a new generation of wrist-worn devices which have improved the quality of heart rate sensors and applications. Real-time monitoring of rehabilitation sessions based on high-quality clinical guidelines is embedded in a wearable application. For this, a fuzzy temporal linguistic approach models the clinical protocol. An evaluation based on cases is developed by a cardiac rehabilitation team. %K wrist-worn heart rate devices %K cardiac rehabilitation %K real-time wearable monitoring %K fuzzy logic %K fuzzy linguistic approach %K m-health %K Physical-activity %K Accuracy %K Exercise %K Programs %~
