简要总结
Critically-ill patients who have long stays in the hospital often face prolonged periods of bed rest. It is known that these patient develop profound weakness and debilitation. The effectiveness of existing muscle activation devices that could otherwise prevent the onset of debilitation in an immobilized patient has not been demonstrated widely in this cohort. It is hypothesized that using thermal methods to augment existing muscle activation techniques may demonstrate improved performance with no corresponding change in the safety profile.

结局指标
主要结局
Muscle Activation Effectiveness
时间窗: Day of ICU Discharge, expected on average 5 days
Research team will assess whether or not visible or palpable muscle contractions can be activated in the target patient population.
次要结局
- Muscle Mass(At enrollment, at ICU discharge (expected average days), at hospital discharge (expected average 10 days))
- Muscle Strength(At enrollment, at ICU discharge (expected average days), at hospital discharge (expected average 10 days))
- Activities of Daily Living(At hospital discharge (expected average 10 days))
- Six Minute Walk(At time of first ambulation (expected average 7 days), at hospital discharge (expected average 10 days))
- Time to ambulation(During timeframe when patient moves out of bed, expected on average 5 - 8 days into study)
- Length of stay(At end of study, expected on average after 10 days)
- Ventilator Dependency(During active ventilation and weaning period, expected to last on average 4 - 7 days per patient)
