DEVICE

Assessment of physical activity level

Physical activity was assessed using the Sensewear Armband device. Patients received the device on Thursday mornings, prior to exercise and treatments. The device was placed on the right arm throughout the study. Patients in whom the device monitored a minimum of 95% of the time of the study day were analyzed. Prior to the study, the devices were programmed to record a minimum level of intense (\>3MET) and moderate ( \>6MET) exercise.
