Brief summary

This project will test whether the individualized music-enhanced exercise playlist (Exercise with Music intervention) can prevent further physical and psychological deterioration and motivate ICU survivors to more actively participate in their rehabilitation.

Interventions

The Exercise with Music intervention is recorded exercise playlist, which provide exercise instructions tailored to patients' musical choices and exercise capacity.

BEHAVIORALExercise

The exercise group will receive exercise brochure and will be advised to exercise at least twice daily.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Enrollment rateOne yearNumber of subjects enrolled into the study divided by number of subjects approached X 100%
Acceptability of intervention as measured by a questionnaireDay fiveA self-designed 8-item questionnaire is administered to assess subjects' feedback regarding the intervention. Five questions are likert-scale questions (strongly disagree, disagree, undecided, agree, strongly agree); three questions are yes or no questions. If the results of the questionnaire show that majority of patients answer agree or strongly agree and yes, this would indicate that the intervention is acceptable. If the results of the questionnaire show that majority of the patients answer strongly disagree or disagree and no, this would indicate that the intervention is not acceptable.
Number of participants that complete the intervention as prescribedDay 5Count of participants who exercise twice daily for five days (upper and lower extremity exercise). Each session includes five movements. The number of movements and sessions of the intervention delivered within and beyond the 5-day mandatory regimen will be documented.
Number of participants that complete the intervention beyond the 5-day mandatory sessionsDay 11Count of participants who complete additional exercise sessions beyond the prescribed exercise regimen (twice daily for five days). Each session includes five movements.
Number of participants with adverse eventsDay 5Adverse events are any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the trial intervention.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Changes in Foot StrengthBaseline, Day 5Foot strength will be assessed objectively using hand-held dynamometer.
Changes in Foot Strength at hospital dischargeDay 5, Day 11Foot strength will be assessed objectively using hand-held dynamometer.
Changes in Motivation (Visual Analog Scale)Baseline, Day 5Motivation will be measured by the visual analog scale (VAS) with scores from 0 to 100. 0 indicates not motivated to do exercise at all; 100 indicates extremely motivated to do exercise.
Changes in Motivation (Visual Analog Scale) at hospital dischargeDay 5, Day 11Motivation will be measured by the visual analog scale (VAS) with scores from 0 to 100. 0 indicates not motivated to do exercise at all; 100 indicates extremely motivated to do exercise.
Changes in Anxiety (NIH Toolbox) at hospital dischargeDay 5, Day 11Anxiety will also be assessed using the NIH Toolbox Emotion Battery (fear-affect survey), CAT format. Each item administered has a 5-point scale with options ranging from never to always. The survey is scored using IRT methods. Higher scores are indicative of more feelings of anxiety.
Changes in Anxiety (Visual Analog Scale) at hospital dischargeDay 5, Day 11Anxiety will be measured by the visual analog scale (VAS) with scores from 0 to 100. 0 indicates no anxiety; 100 indicates extremely anxious.
Changes in Anxiety (NIH Toolbox)Baseline, day 5Anxiety will also be assessed using the NIH Toolbox Emotion Battery (fear-affect survey), CAT format. Each item administered has a 5-point scale with options ranging from never to always. The survey is scored using IRT methods. Higher scores are indicative of more feelings of anxiety.
Changes in Depression (NIH Toolbox)Baseline, Day 5Depression will be assessed using the NIH Toolbox Emotion Battery (sadness survey), CAT format. Each item administered has a 5-point scale with options ranging from never to always (adults) or almost always. higher scores are indicative of more depressive.

Each item administered has a 5-point scale with options ranging from never to always (adults) or almost always. higher scores are indicative of more depressive.
Changes in Anxiety (Visual Analog Scale)Baseline, Day 5Anxiety will be measured by the visual analog scale (VAS) with scores from 0 to 100. 0 indicates no anxiety; 100 indicates extremely anxious.
Effect size of the Exercise with Music interventionOne yearEstimated effect size of the intervention on outcome measures to calculate sample size for a larger future study.
Changes in activityBaseline, Day 5Activity will be monitored using an Actiwatch (Philips Respironics) placed on subjects' wrists at enrollment. The Actiwatch is a small, lightweight, limb-worn activity monitoring device. It contains an accelerometer that is capable of sensing any motion with minimal acceleration of 0.01g to measure long-term gross motor activity and intensity of motion.
Changes grip strengthBaseline, Day 5Grip strength will be assessed using handgrip dynamometer.
Changes grip strength at hospital dischargeDay 5, Day 11Grip strength will be assessed using handgrip dynamometer.
