5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate whether virtual reality assisted stationary cycling exercise results in more physical activity than conventional unsupervised stationary cycling exercise. Physical activity levels are reported for both exercise duration and volume and non-exercise activity.

6. Conditions and Keywords

Primary Disease or Condition Being Studied in the Trial, or the Focus of the Study
Inactivity, Physical, Treatment Adherence and Compliance, Hospital Acquired Condition, Sarcopenia

Study Phase
Not Applicable
Interventional Study Model
Parallel Assignment
Model Description
Stratified randomization (based os Cumulated-Ambulation Score of 6 vs. <6) of geriatric inpatients to either VR assisted stationary cycling exercise or conventional stationary cycling exercise.
Masking
None (Open Label)
Masking Description
Since there is only a single investigator conducting this study and due to the nature of exercise intervention, it is impossible to facilitate masking terms in this trial.
Allocation
Randomized
Enrollment
30 (Anticipated)
