Using Smartphone Sensor Technology to Characterize Ambulatory Patterns of Participants With Peripheral Artery Disease

• Status: Completed
• Phase: —
• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 19 (actual)
• Sponsor: University of Minnesota · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 40 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The investigators plan to use smartphone and wearable sensor technology to characterize the activity patterns of participants with peripheral artery disease (PAD) (n=24) participating in a 12-week supervised exercise training (SET) program, and incorporate the resulting data into a web-based dashboard for participants and study staff.

Detailed description

Participants in the proposed study will be current clinical participants in the SET program within Fairview. Participants will have a diagnosis of PAD and be ≥40 years of age (participants are diagnosed before they are referred to the SET program). Rate limiting comorbidities not associated with vascular disease (e.g., severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) will be exclusionary (for example). Age, sex, race, ethnicity, educational status, and smoking status at baseline will be recorded from cardiac rehabilitation intake forms. Eligible participants will be identified by study staff reviewing electronic medical records of patients who are enrolling into the SET program. University of Minnesota staff will travel to the urban and rural clinical rehabilitation sites to obtain informed consent at the participants first SET visit. They will then provide participants instructions and training for how to use the smartphone and app.

Conditions

• Peripheral Artery Disease

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Accelerometry	Patients will be given accelerometers at this visit and informed on how to use them (e.g., wear on the ankle during waking hours, upright, etc).
OTHER	Daynamica app	Participants will be asked to record location/activity on the app in order to characterize activity patterns both inside and outside of the hospital SET setting.
