No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Spinal stenosis is a common orthopedic spine condition that limits individuals ability to walk and stand because of nerve compression. Surgical treatment can alleviate leg pain and improve function such as increasing physical activity. This study will use Fitbit technology to monitor patient's post-operative physical activity. It will evaluate the efficacy of a Fitbit incentive based walking program on improving post-operative physical activity and rehabilitation.
