Physical Activity as Measured Using a Physical Activity Monitorbaseline and 2 week treatment

Change from baseline in physical activity. Physical activity was measured using an activity monitor that subjects wore around their waist throughout baseline and treatment days. Subjects were instructed to remove the monitor when sleeping or engaging in water-based activities, and to report on a daily log the times that they were wearing and removing the device. Physical activity was monitored during weekdays and weekend days. Physical activity data were collected in 60-second epochs. The results are reported as average counts per day of physical activity for weekdays and weekend days at baseline and 2 week treatment.
