Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Kidney Transplant
Liver Transplant
Interventions
Device: MoveMend Health
Registration Number
NCT06222554
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of the MoveMend Health software program as an integrated supplement to traditional acute care/in-hospital occupational therapy for patients following liver and kidney transplants, as determined by recruitment rates, program completion, intervention adherence, safety incidence, and patient feedback on device/program performance.

GroupInterventionDescription
Patients Hospitalized following Kidney or Liver TransplantMoveMend HealthPatients in the study will be introduced to the exercise software program and provided with a demonstration. Measurements will be taken at baseline (post-operation) and at the final study visit. Participants will remain in the study until the end of their hospital stay, typically no longer than 6 months post-operation.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Adverse EventsUp to Month 6 Post-Operation

Measured using data from participant's electronic medical record.

Percentage of Participants who Adhere to InterventionUp to Month 6 Post-Operation

Measured by session duration and frequency, as recorded by the device. Participants will be classified as "adhering" or "not adhering."

Recruitment RateUp to Month 6 Post-Operation

Calculated by dividing the number of participants enrolled by the total number of patients contacted or screened.

Percentage of Participants who Complete Exercise ProgramUp to Month 6 Post-Operation

Percentage of enrolled participants who complete the interventional program.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care (AMPAC) ScoreBaseline, End of Hospital Stay (typically no more than 6 months post-operation)

12-item assessment of basic mobility of inpatients. Each item is rated on a Likert scale from 1-4. The raw score is the sum of responses, which is converted to a T-score. The total score is a T-score ranging from 0 to 100; higher scores indicate greater mobility.

Change in EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) Questionnaire Index ScoreBaseline, End of Hospital Stay (typically no more than 6 months post-operation)

The EQ-5D-5L is a self-reported health status questionnaire that consists of six questions used to calculate a health utility score for use in health economic analysis. There are two components to the EQ-5D-5L: a five-item health state profile that assesses mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression used to obtain an Index Utility Score, as well as a visual analogue scale (VAS) that measures health state. Overall scores range from 0 to 1, with low scores representing a higher level of dysfunction.

Upper Extremity Range of Motion (ROM) ChangeBaseline, End of Hospital Stay (typically no more than 6 months post-operation)

Measured as the change in degrees of ROM at the shoulder and elbow as measured by a goniometer from baseline to discharge.

Change in Grip StrengthBaseline, End of Hospital Stay (typically no more than 6 months post-operation)

Measured as the percentage change in grip strength between the baseline assessment and the final assessment at discharge.
