About this study

Official title: Using Body Data for the Purpose of Contextualised Feedback to Enable Established Physical Activity Guidelines to be Delivered in a Free- Living Environment as Part of a Comprehensive Cardiac Rehabilitation Programme.

KiCS1 study : Digital health for current hospital- based Cardiac rehabilitation programmes to increase effectiveness and patient outcomes.

Read the detailed description

Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) after a heart attack has shown to be more effective than any other medication given after such an event. It is a recommended therapy by NICE. However, only 44% of eligible patients attend rehabilitation and only half of these complete the course. Novel ways to increase uptake and compliance are needed.

In this study, calorie burn and physical activity data will be collected using a validated, CE marked physical activity monitor, herein referred to as Ki monitor. Data can be uploaded to an online behaviour change platform that incorporates personalised feedback in the context of their bespoke requirements for CR to empower people to self-care at home using their personal everyday physical activity. This can be closely monitored and support can be given on the contextualised feedback by healthcare professionals. A small pilot study has been carried out to establish wearability of a physical activity monitor in a CR cohort, which has demonstrated a high level of acceptability.

We now wish to extend this pilot to a randomised study designed to test the effectiveness of using contextualised body data to influence physical activity in a free-living environment amongst patients undergoing CR, based on the current ACPICR standards for Daily Activity and At-home Training. All patients referred for CR will be invited to take part. These will be randomised to the usual care (UC) group or the contextualised data feedback (CDF) group. Both groups will wear the Ki monitor for eight weeks. The UC group will receive usual care, the CDF group will receive usual care with the addition of contextualised feedback on their activities based on the physical activity data.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Achieving the ACPICR standards for physical activity in a free-living environment objectively measured using the Ki monitor

    Objective measurement using Ki monitor.

    Measured: 6 - 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Exercise test result.

    Incremental shuttle walk test or 6 minute walking test, as appropriate

    Measured: 6-8 weeks

  2. Total calories burned

    Objectively measured using the Ki monitor

    Measured: 6-8 weeks

  3. Completion of cardiac rehabilitation programme

    Number of participants completed full cardiac rehabilitation programme.

    Measured: 6-8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ki Monitor without feedback and Ki monitor with contextualised data feedback in people with Cardiac Rehabilitation, run by Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Achieving the ACPICR standards for physical activity in a free-living environment objectively measured using the Ki monitor (time frame: 6 - 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Aug 2023.
