Summary

Brief Summary This is a pilot study implemented physical activity assessment, promotion and monitoring in patients. Patients will be assessed by the physical activity vital sign (PAVS) during check-in for their appointment. During their visit with the cardiologist, a clinical decision support tool will alert the cardiologist to patients achieving low (\<50% of recommended) physical activity. The cardiologist may refer the patient to cardiac rehabilitation if appropriate and/or counsel them to increase their physical activity levels. The patients may opt to enroll in the monitoring phase of the study. They will be given a Fitbit pedometer and their Fitbit account can sync to their MyChart account. After that sync, the patients step counts will be available for their cardiologists to review as needed.
