Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In this study, we will implement a pilot project of using activity tracker (i.e., Fitbit) with phase III CR clients. The study will record the clients' daily steps and sleep patterns for 8 consecutive weeks in natural settings. Two specific aims are identified for this project:

  1. Develop an intervention protocol using mHealth to promote Phase III CR clients' self-monitoring of PA.

  2. Examine the efficacy of the intervention on clients' PA, sleep patterns, functional capacity and QoL.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Clients' demographic information will be obtained using a paper questionnaire administered at screening phase [12 months]

    Descriptive statistics will be used to assess completeness of study data, normality of outcome measures, and potential covariates, and to identify potential covariate imbalances between study arms

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
18 Years to 99 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:
All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
