简要总结
Monitoring heart rate during exercise can provide feedback to the patient and provider that the patient is exercising in the appropriate, individualized and safe range for them. This is particularly important in a group setting when multiple individuals are supervised by one provider. This study is interested in assessing the difference in intensity of care delivered when visual feedback of heart rate is provided compared to no visual feedback of heart rate in rehabilitation. Visual feedback of heart rate will be provided through Heart Zones, a platform which synthesizes multiple signals from externally worn heart rate monitors. This study is interested in better understanding the acceptability, feasibility and appropriateness of this technology when used in rehabilitation.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
The purpose of this investigation is to determine if knowledge of heart rate (HR) and target HR zones (HRzone), with visual feedback vs no feedback of HR or HRzone improves patient exercise intensity during rehabilitation. The central hypothesis for this study is with visual feedback of HR and target HR zones with instruction about exercise intensity and targets will increase patient HR intensity during sessions within a safe range set by their medical team. For purposes of this study, patients will be monitored in inpatient sessions and is inclusive of all individuals with chronic health conditions. Physical activity and exercise guidelines recommend everyone, including those with chronic health conditions, strive for 150 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic exercise per week. This study will contribute to the knowledge of how patients achieve recommended individual HR and moderate-high intensity zones during exercise.
Aim 1: Measure the extent to which monitoring and education regarding intensity is provided (1) when providers know HR monitoring is occurring but without visual feedback for the group, and (2) with visual feedback of HR monitoring in a group setting.
The investigators hypothesize providers will modify their behavior in the number of times they ask about intensity, adjust session intensity or provide education regarding intensity when visual feedback is provided compared to no feedback.
Aim 2: Determine the safety of using Heart Zones technology in rehabilitation settings for increasing participant exercise intensity.

结局指标
主要结局
Provider Behavior
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 3 months
Number of times heart rate (beats/minute), Rate of perceived exertion (6-20, higher = greater perceived exertion) or intensity (asked in session by HR/RPE) is monitored and/or modified based on feedback during rehabilitation sessions.
次要结局
- Patient Participant Self-Efficacy and Confidence(Assessed during therapy sessions (1-4 hrs/day, up to 5 days per week) through the duration of patient's rehabilitation stay (approximately 5-60 days).)
