The Effect of Activity Feedback Enabled by Smart Watches During In-patient Stroke Rehabilitation

An International Randomized Clinical Trial of Activity Feedback During In-patient Stroke Rehabilitation Enabled by Smart Watches

The amount of activity completed by individuals within rehabilitation programs, even when units are well staffed, is often far below that required for optimal stroke rehabilitation, and is not individually adapted on a day-to-day basis. Daily feedback on their activity levels may motivate stroke survivors to engage in greater skills practice and thus outcome after stroke. To date only a few trials suggests that augmented feedback may be effective. There is a need for a large pragmatic trial to explore the impact of augmented activity feedback on top of their standard care. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of augmented activity feedback by smart watches to support in-patient stroke rehabilitation.

Studieoversikt

Detaljert beskrivelse

This study had a feasibility and pilot development phase from September 2015 to April 2016, and then moved into the main study with some changes in design and execution occurring in the light of experience. Its execution has also been constrained by external factors beyond control.

It is in essence asking whether wearing a Smart Watch which gives feedback on activity every two hours, with a specific target tailored to the patient's performance 24 hours earlier will be associated with a higher rate of physical activity than seen in people wearing the same watch without and feedback been given.

The intervention only lasts unto 21 days, but earlier discharge will terminate that patient's participation sooner. A telephone interview at 12 weeks after entry collect data on mobility.

Outcome measures will assess mobility, activity, and health status.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Feedback against tailored target
For each two hour epoch, the watch calculate the level of activity for the same epoch the day before, and adds 5% as the new target to be achieved.
Participants will wear a smart watch every weekday for nine hours during in-patient rehabilitation to monitor activity levels while receiving their usual care. In the active group, the watch will summate activity movement in two hour epochs and the target for the day for that epoch is the activity in the same epoch 24 hours earlier, plus 5%. During an epoch the patient is shown progress towards the target at at the end of an epoch, they will see their final process towards target for that epoch.
Sham-komparator: No Feedback
For participants assigned to the control group, the smart watch will not provide any activity feedback against a target; it simply shows which two hour epoch a person is in.
Participants will wear a smart watch every weekday for nine hours during in-patient rehabilitation to monitor activity levels while receiving their usual care. However the watch face will simply show which epoch a person is in. The watch will collect the activity in exactly the same way over the day.

Sekundære resultatmål

Resultatmål
Tiltaksbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Activity goal attainment as measured and provided by the smart watch
Tidsramme: At three weeks, or discharge if sooner
Participants in feedback group receive a preset activity goal based on their previous activity levels at baseline. The smart watch will then provide graduated encouragement by increasing their activity goal by about 5%. Every 10-15 minutes the screen lights up and participants can see their activity progress expressed by activity bars (representing 0-100%). Participants reaching their activity goal is used to measure goal attainment.
At three weeks, or discharge if sooner
Change in walking mobility
Tidsramme: Baseline, Three weeks or discharge from in-patient rehabilitation if sooner
Change in walking speed and spatio-temporal characteristics of walking as measured by an inertial sensor on the lower trunk during a 10m walk test.
