Recruitment rate
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 2 years
The Proportion of eligible people recruited (= proportion of people randomised/proportion of people eligible).
Satisfaction to the intervention
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 2 years
Satisfaction questionnaire, including questions of "Does the game provide an engaging environment for training?", "Do you think the exercise intensity suits you?"
Intervention Completion Rate
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 2 years.
Overall intervention completion rate -defined as the proportion of participants who completed the allocated intervention with a minimum of 80% attendance. Calculated as number of participants allocated to the intervention that completed the minimum attendance (numerator)/number of participants allocated to treatment (denominator).
Attrition rate
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 2 years
Overall attrition rate-defined as the proportion of participants at defined study points who discontinued the intervention or were lost to follow-up (calculated as number of participants that withdraw (numerator)/number of participants randomised (denominator)).
