Study Overview

Brief Summary

Emerging technologies that utilize motion capture integrated with engaging software offer new methods for increasing engagement and movement in patients admitted to the hospital. Hospitalized patients are often limited to sedentary activities, spending the majority of their time in bed, which can contribute to deconditioning and functional mobility deficits. This study seeks to explore the feasibility of a tool designed to promote movement through engaging gameplay that is acceptable to both clinicians and families.

Arms & Interventions

Pediatric patient

Experimental

Pediatric patient will engage with engagement-focused software platform (Snipperfingers) and movement will be analysed by the real-time motion capture system (the OptiTrack system).

Intervention: Snipperfingers (Behavioral)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Evaluate the ease of use of Optitrack system measured by System Usability Scale (SUS)

Time Frame: Post-simulation (5 minutes)]

10-item questionnaire with a scale from 1- 5, 1 being strongly disagree to 5 being strongly agree on a five-point Likert scale to measure usability.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) survey(immediately after the intervention)
  • Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM) survey(immediately after the intervention)
  • Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM) survey(immediately after the intervention)
  • ISO 9241-400(immediately after intervention)
  • Setup time required for system use(Before intervention)
  • Duration of gameplay-driven physical activity(immediately at the start of intervention, immediately after intervention)
  • Evaluation parent's perception of patient's engagement.(immediately after intervention)
