• 1 other identifier: PA_S1_LAB
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 66
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

This study aims to observe participants' physical activity (PA) using a blinded multisensor physical activity monitor as they go about their typical daily physical activities across a 6-week time frame. Participants will also complete a subjective, self-reported, online form to denote structured activities undertaken.

Physical Activity

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Total energy expenditure [kilocalories per minute]

  24-hour energy expenditure will be assessed via a wearable device enabling the estimation of total daily kilocalorie expenditure.

  6 weeks

• Domain specific energy expenditure [kilocalories per minute].

  24-hour energy expenditure will be assessed via a wearable device enabling the estimation of kilocalorie expenditure during sedentary (\<1.5 metabolic equivalents) , light (1.5 - 3 metabolic equivalents), moderate (3-6 metabolic equivalents), vigorous (\>6 metabolic equivalents) activities.

  6 weeks
