• 1 other identifier: PRO00051086
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 15
• Locations: 1 country

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to pilot test the feasibility of providing patients diagnosed with a hematologic malignancy, undergoing an allogeneic bone marrow transplant, a wearable device and smartphone app (similar to a Fitbit), that would send personalized reminders to move during their post-transplant inpatient hospital stay to promote physical recovery and well-being.

Conditions

Blood Cancer; Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Pilot evaluation of intervention efficacy

  Efficacy will be evaluated by examining the percentage of time participants responded to the cued exercise prompts.

  cumulative percent from day 1 through discharge from hospital, on average day 30

• Patient feedback from participation in the study

  Patient experience will be evaluated by looking at the central tendencies of the ratings from the post-participation evaluation survey.

Study Arms (1)

Reminders to exercise through cues provided by wearable device + custom smartphone application

EXPERIMENTAL

Each participant receives 2 wearable devices and custom smartphone application. Participants will wear an activity monitor on their non-dominant wrist and contralateral ankle. Post-transplant inpatient days \~3-10, participants will schedule three cued exercise sessions each day using the smartphone application. At the scheduled time, the wearable devices will vibrate to indicate "time to exercise" and participants are encouraged to complete an exercise task for 15 minutes. Post-transplant inpatient hospital days \~1-2 and post-transplant inpatient hospital days \~11 until discharge patients will wear the devices but will not receive any cues. During these days, the monitors will only be measuring their movement without any intervention.

Behavioral: exercise intervention

Interventions

exercise intervention BEHAVIORAL
