Study Arms (2)
Pedometer Group
EXPERIMENTALThis group will be given a pedometer following radical cystectomy. Subjects in the experimental group will have a graduated step-count goal as follows: POD 0-2: 1,000/day. POD 3-6: 2,000/day. POD 7-9: 3,000/day. POD 10-14: 4,000/day. POD 14-21: 5,000
Control group
ACTIVE COMPARATORThis is the control group. Following radical cystectomy subjects in the control group will receive standard of care, which includes counseling regarding the importance of ambulation following surgery.
Interventions
Subjects in the study group will receive a pedometer with graduated step count goals as discussed in arm description.
Subjects in the control group will be counseled on the importance of ambulation during their pre-operative visit.
