Trial Outcomes & Findings for FRailty WAlking Patterns (FRAP) Study (NCT NCT02755129)

NCT ID: NCT02755129

Last Updated: 2020-03-25

Results Overview

The gait speed will be calculated from the Reveal LINQ accelerometer signals, from the validation accelerometer and / or from the computer assisted rehabilitation system during the walking exercises. We will calculate the average correlation coefficient over all patients and exercises. It is reported as score on a scale, with minimum value= -1 and maximum value = 1. Higher absolute values mean higher correlation.

Measure
All Study Participants
Patients with Chronic Heart Failure. No control group has been used for this study, but all the patients enrolled will perform the same walking exercises. On arrival to the rehabilitation center subjects will have the Reveal LINQ, the 3D-accelerometers (one on the chest by medical-grade adhesives and a second at the level of the waist over the top of a medical grade adhesive) and the Holter attached externally. Then, they will be asked to perform the following exercises: * Walking exercises - Six Minute Walk (6MW) Test * Walking exercises - 4 Meter Gait Speed (4MGS) Test * Walking Exercises - Five Times Sit to Stand (FTSTS) Test * Walking Exercises - Expanded Timed Get-Up-and-Go (ETGUG) Test

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: During walking exercises visit, 1 Day

Population: 15 subjects were enrolled and completed the study. All subjects met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. One subject did not have readable device data and as such was excluded from the analysis.

The gait speed will be calculated from the Reveal LINQ accelerometer signals, from the validation accelerometer and / or from the computer assisted rehabilitation system during the walking exercises. We will calculate the average correlation coefficient over all patients and exercises. It is reported as score on a scale, with minimum value= -1 and maximum value = 1. Higher absolute values mean higher correlation.

Outcome measures
Measure
Correlation Coefficient - Six Minute Walk (6MW) Test
n=14 Participants
Patients with Chronic Heart Failure. No control group used. All patients enrolled performed the same walking exercises. On arrival to the rehabilitation center subjects will have the Reveal LINQ, the 3D-accelerometers (one on the chest by medical-grade adhesives and a second at the level of the waist over the top of a medical grade adhesive) and the Holter attached externally. Then, the correlation coefficient for gait speed across devices for Six Minute Walk (6MW) Test is calculated.
Correlation Coefficient - 4 Meter Gait Speed (4MGS) Test
n=14 Participants
Patients with Chronic Heart Failure. No control group used. All patients enrolled performed the same walking exercises. On arrival to the rehabilitation center subjects will have the Reveal LINQ, the 3D-accelerometers (one on the chest by medical-grade adhesives and a second at the level of the waist over the top of a medical grade adhesive) and the Holter attached externally. Then, the correlation coefficient for gait speed across devices for 4 Meter Gait Speed (4MGS) Test is calculated.
