Understanding the Implementation of Cued Exercise Using Wearable Devices and a Custom Smartphone Application Following Bone Marrow Transplant.

The purpose of this study is to pilot test the feasibility of providing patients diagnosed with a hematologic malignancy, undergoing an allogeneic bone marrow transplant, a wearable device and smartphone app (similar to a Fitbit), that would send personalized reminders to move during their post-transplant inpatient hospital stay to promote physical recovery and well-being.

About this study

Enrolled patients who have been diagnosed with a hematologic malignancy and are scheduled to undergo an allogeneic bone marrow transplant will use a custom-designed wearable device and smartphone application as a behavioral intervention to cue exercise. Participants will be asked to wear the wearable device for the duration of their post-transplant inpatient hospital stay.

Aim 1. To examine the potential efficacy of the wearable device + smartphone application to prompt alloBMT patients to move.

Aim 2. To receive participant feedback on their experience participating in the study.

Treatment and study plan

Exercise Intervention

Behavioral

Exercise intervention leveraging wearable devices and a custom smartphone application to cue exercise as a reminder during idle time during an inpatient hospital stay, post allogenic bone marrow transplant.

Primary outcomes

  1. Pilot evaluation of intervention efficacy

    Time frame: cumulative percent from day 1 through discharge from hospital, on average day 30

    Efficacy will be evaluated by examining the percentage of time participants responded to the cued exercise prompts.

  2. Patient feedback from participation in the study

    Time frame: day 10

    Patient experience will be evaluated by looking at the central tendencies of the ratings from the post-participation evaluation survey.
