No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This is a randomized controlled trial that compares a system using activity monitors to provide real-time feedback on daily ambulation to patients undergoing major surgeries, paired with step-count-measured art tours of the surgical units, versus standard of care, on step count. The hypothesis is that the feedback system + art tours will encourage patients to ambulate more.

Conditions

  • Surgery

Interventions

OTHER

Activity monitor feedback loop

The intervention arm will test if the feedback system (i.e., activity monitor, real-time feedback, and art tours) increases daily step count, decreases length of stay, and improves patient and provider communication, patient awareness of step count goals, and patient confidence in accomplishment of daily goals.
