AI-driven Personalized Exercise Feedback Program on Exercise Adherence in Traumatic Brain Injury

This study aims to develop and evaluate an AI-driven Personalized Exercise Feedback Program (AI-PEF) to enhance exercise adherence and health outcomes in mTBI patients.

Methods: AI-PEF integrates the transtheoretical model and self-determination theory with machine learning algorithms to provide real-time, personalized feedback. A phased randomized controlled trial will be conducted: Phase I evaluates feasibility and acceptability through Delphi methods with expert consensus and patient feedback; Phase II validates preliminary outcomes with 30 participants in a 2-arm randomized trial; and Phase III assesses the program's impact on exercise adherence, exercise motivation, mHealth app usability, functional capacity, sleep quality, depressive symptoms, concussion symptoms, and quality of life with 90 participants in a 3-arm randomized trial. In Phase III, quantitative and qualitative data will be collected in parallel, with qualitative data collected through semi-structured interviews to explore participants' experiences and perceptions of the intervention.

Key information

About this study

The study will employ a stepwise, multi-phase design, combining a two- parallel-group pilot study and a three-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the appropriateness, feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of the AI-PEF (Figure 5). Participants will be recruited from the neurosurgery clinics at Tri-Service General Hospital, Taipei. Recruitment will be facilitated through referrals by attending physicians and registered nurses, who will be briefed on the study protocol.

Study procedures

  • Phase I (Year 1): Development and Pilot Testing (Aim 1) Phase I will focus on developing and refining the AI-PEF through expert validation and pilot testing. This phase will use a sequential-parallel hybrid design to develop and evaluate the appropriateness of the AI-PEF to deliver personalized exercise empowerment. Stage 1, Delphi Process for AI-PEF Development: Ten experts from diverse fields will participate in two Delphi rounds to finalize the AI-PEF framework. This includes refining algorithms, educational materials, and preliminary validation of key components, such as personalization algorithms and behavior-change strategies. Stage 2, Small-Scale Pilot Study (Early Feedback): A single-arm pilot study with 5 patients will be conducted over four weeks to gather feedback on usability, engagement, and content clarity.
  • Phase II : Larger Pilot Study (Aim 2) Phase II will focus on evaluating the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of the refined AI-PEF intervention. A two-parallel-group design will be employed, with 30 participants, 15 participants per group, randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the AI-PEF group and Active control group. Over three months, AI-PEF participants will engage in personalized exercise guided by AI, while active control participants will follow standard exercise recommendations. Both qualitative and quantitative data will be collected. Assessments will occur at baseline (T0) and 3 months (T1), including fitness tracker data, questionnaires (motivation, sleep, symptoms), and semi-structured interviews. The primary outcome of interest will be adherence rates, while secondary outcomes will focus on motivation and various health metrics.
  • Phase III : Full- scale three-arm RCT (Aim 3) Phase III will assess the long-term impact of the AI-PEF on exercise adherence, motivation, and health outcomes through a 3-arm RCT, in which participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of three groups: (1) the AI-PEF group, receiving a machine learning-powered personalized exercise program; (2) the Theory-based digital exercise group, engaging in structured digital exercise without machine learning-powered feedback; or (3) the Active control group, receiving general exercise recommendations as part of standard care. Participants will receive group-specific interventions during the 12-week intervention period and will be followed for six months, with assessments conducted at baseline (T1), 1 month (T2), 2 months (T3), 3 months (T4), and the 6-month follow-up (T5).

Primary outcomes will include exercise adherence, exercise motivation, mHealth app usability, and functional capacity. Exercise adherence will be objectively measured via Garmin fitness trackers; exercise motivation and mHealth app usability will be assessed through standardized questionnaires; and functional capacity will be evaluated using the 6-Minute Walk Test. Secondary outcomes, such as sleep quality, depressive symptoms, concussion symptoms, and quality of life, will also be assessed through standardized questionnaires. These standardized questionnaires are being used in our current digital remote exercise trial in patients with mild TBI (NSTC 112-2314-B-016-007-MY2) and have demonstrated good psychometric performance.

Quantitative and qualitative data will be collected and analyzed in parallel.Quantitative data will be used to compare adherence, motivation, usability, functional capacity, and health outcomes across the three groups and to evaluate the efficacy of AI-PEF relative to standard interventions. Qualitative interviews will explore participants' experiences and perceptions of the intervention. Procedures will adhere to the blinding and randomization protocols described in Intervention Fidelity, ensuring unbiased assignment and data collection processes. This proposed study protocol is closely aligned with those that have been successfully implemented in our previous digital exercise trial.

Treatment and study plan

AI-PEF

Behavioral

Participants will follow a 12-week walking program with at least three 30-minute sessions per week, with exercise intensity progressively adjusted based on heart rate and effort indices. Garmin fitness trackers will monitor exercise adherence and intensity. Remote guidance will be provided through five AI-generated digital health messages per week via LINE, delivered on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and tailored to participants' exercise performance and individualized goals established during the remote exercise intervention and consultation. The messages will include exercise performance feedback, goal setting and reinforcement, exercise and device-use reminders, health education, and encouragement and support. The digital component will allow participants to share their progress and seek guidance during scheduled in-person consultations. AI-driven digital feedback provides a convenient and accessible approach to supporting participants in engaging in exercise.

Theory-based digital exercise

Behavioral

The theory-based digital exercise group will follow the same in-person clinic visits, assessment schedule, and 12-week walking program as the AI-PEF group. Garmin fitness trackers will be used to monitor exercise adherence and intensity. The research team will deliver five standardized digital health messages per week through the LINE app using message templates developed in advance. The messages will include exercise guidance, goal setting and reinforcement, exercise and device-use reminders, health education and lifestyle recommendations, and encouragement and support. The messages will not be generated or tailored by AI, and participants will not receive AI-driven personalized feedback.

Active Control

Behavioral

Participants in the active control group will receive standard TBI care, including routine clinic visits. In addition, Garmin fitness trackers will be provided for self-monitoring during the study. The research team will deliver five standardized general health messages per week through the LINE app. The messages will include TBI-related health education, general health and lifestyle information, general recommendations for daily physical activity, general check-in messages, and technical reminders for Garmin use. The messages will not include structured exercise guidance, individualized goal setting or reinforcement, performance-based feedback, or AI-generated personalized feedback. Participants completing the 6-month protocol will have the option to access the AI-PEF program after the study.

Primary outcomes

  1. Adherence

    Time frame: T1-baseline

    Exercise adherence will be defined as the percentage of prescribed sessions completed during the 12-week intervention, based on three 30-minute sessions per week (36 sessions in total). The Garmin Vivosmart 5 will record exercise frequency, duration, and intensity. A session will be considered completed when the participant exercises for at least 30 minutes and reaches Garmin heart rate zone 2 or higher. Adherence will be calculated by summing completed sessions, with a maximum of three sessions counted per week, dividing by 36, and multiplying by 100. Scores range from 0% to 100%, with higher percentages indicating greater adherence. Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) will complement intensity assessment, particularly for older participants or those with heart rate or blood pressure concerns. An RPE of ≥12 indicates moderate intensity, while ≥11 may be encouraged initially, followed by gradual progression as tolerated.
