Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in Heart Rate Variability
measured by the WHOOP biometric device - The WHOOP wearable brings hi-tech features including sleep, workout, heart rate feedback and more advanced biometrics in a simple package - the latest, most advanced fitness and health wearable available. Monitor your recovery, sleep, training, and health, with personalized recommendations and coaching feedback.
Change in Resting Heart Rate
measured by the WHOOP biometric device - The WHOOP wearable brings hi-tech features including sleep, workout, heart rate feedback and more advanced biometrics in a simple package - the latest, most advanced fitness and health wearable available. Monitor your recovery, sleep, training, and health, with personalized recommendations and coaching feedback.
Change in time spent in bed
measured by the WHOOP biometric device - The WHOOP wearable brings hi-tech features including sleep, workout, heart rate feedback and more advanced biometrics in a simple package - the latest, most advanced fitness and health wearable available. Monitor your recovery, sleep, training, and health, with personalized recommendations and coaching feedback.
Change in sleep quality
measured by the WHOOP biometric device - The WHOOP wearable brings hi-tech features including sleep, workout, heart rate feedback and more advanced biometrics in a simple package - the latest, most advanced fitness and health wearable available. Monitor your recovery, sleep, training, and health, with personalized recommendations and coaching feedback.
Change in sleep consistency
measured by the WHOOP biometric device - The WHOOP wearable brings hi-tech features including sleep, workout, heart rate feedback and more advanced biometrics in a simple package - the latest, most advanced fitness and health wearable available. Monitor your recovery, sleep, training, and health, with personalized recommendations and coaching feedback.
Change in sleep debt
measured by the WHOOP biometric device - The WHOOP wearable brings hi-tech features including sleep, workout, heart rate feedback and more advanced biometrics in a simple package - the latest, most advanced fitness and health wearable available. Monitor your recovery, sleep, training, and health, with personalized recommendations and coaching feedback.
Change in amount of burn out
collected by means of a paper survey at key benchmark moments throughout the intervention period - scored from 0 to 16 with higher scores being more favorable
Change in self-reported professional fulfillment
collected by means of a paper survey at key benchmark moments throughout the intervention period - scored from 0 to 5 with higher scores being more favorable
Change in self-valuation
collected by means of an in-app survey at key benchmark moments throughout the intervention period

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in self-reported acceptance of the Arena Strive Platform
collected by means of an in-app survey at key benchmark moments throughout the intervention period
Change in self-reported satisfaction of the Arena Strive Platform
collected by means of an in-app survey at key benchmark moments throughout the intervention period - client satisfaction questionnaire 8 (CSQ-8) - Scores therefore range from 8 to 32, with higher values indicating higher satisfaction.
percentage of feasibility of the Arena Strive Platform
collected by means of an in-app survey at key benchmark moments throughout the intervention period - Net Promoter Score with the question of likelihood to recommend

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To determine the efficacy of the asynchronous performance coaching platform, Arena Strive at changing measures of physiological resilience, professional fulfillment, burnout, and self-valuation in full time clinicians.
Detailed Description
This study is a prospective randomized controlled longitudinal crossover design with a per protocol analysis integrating one sensor (WHOOP, inc Platform) and one educational intervention (Arena Strive Platform). The WHOOP sensor collects data on heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and sleep data, and will be worn by all participants in the experimental intervention. Participants will be asked to wear the biometric sensor for 12 weeks but will have optional access to the device for a total of 24 weeks.
