Brief Summary

The proposed preliminary study from this interdisciplinary team will provide important information about the feasibility and safety of bedside low intensity pedaling exercise during hospitalization. The findings from this study are essential to develop high-value, effective treatments that can be used by any hospital setting throughout the country. The program that investigators are proposing may provide important changes in how disability can be prevented in elderly patients who are hospitalized because of an acute illness.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Activities of Daily Living

  Discharge is considered release from the hospital to home or other facility, indicating that their condition has been resolved or adequately treated or is stabilized during their hospital stay. On average we anticipate the time frame between hospital admission and discharge to be variable but between 3-5 days in length.

  Change from Baseline (Admission) to Discharge (approximately 3-5 days in length)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Instrumental Activities of Daily Living

  Change from Baseline (Admission) to Discharge (approximately 3-5 days in length)

• Short Physical Performance Battery

  Change from Baseline (Admission) to Discharge (approximately 3-5 days in length)
