• Conditions: Older Adults; Physical Activity; Sedentary Behavior; Caregiver
• Interventions: Behavioral: Usual Care; Behavioral: Better Together

• Registration Number: NCT04467814
• Lead Sponsor: University of British Columbia

Brief Summary

Hospitalization creates opportunities for older adults to accumulate prolonged periods of sitting and lying (defined as sedentary behavior) which can result in mobility loss. We propose a Type 1 Hybrid Effectiveness-Implementation Trial with 1:1 randomization to test the effect of a caregiver intervention on older patients' physical activity at 3 months (home). We will recruit 61 patients and family caregivers from hospital units and follow them for 3 months; the primary outcome is patients' daily step count at 3 months.
