Exercise has been shown to prevent heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, depression, and certain types of cancers. In addition to prevention, physical activity is included in the standard or care for many chronic diseases and used in treatment. For example, the American Diabetes Association has identified positive health behaviors like physical activity as foundational in the treatment and management of disease and improving overall quality of life.The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Exercise is Medicine Program (EIM) is a physician referral program that aims to increase physical activity to prevent and reduce complications from chronic disease.The integration of technology among a 65+ population of EIM participants provides a novel approach to improving individual's health. Thus, our study aims to provide EIM participants aged 65+ with smartwatches in the hopes of increasing their overall physical activity levels., conditionsModule conditions: Physical Inactivity, conditions: Obesity, designModule studyType: INTERVENTIONAL, phases: NA, designInfo allocation: NA, interventionModel: SINGLE_GROUP, interventionModelDescription: A single-arm trial, primaryPurpose: PREVENTION, maskingInfo masking: NONE, enrollmentInfo count: 150, type: ESTIMATED, armsInterventionsModule interventions name: EIM+, outcomesModule primaryOutcomes measure: Feasibility of EIM+, primaryOutcomes measure: Acceptability of EIM+, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in physical activity, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in weight, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in BMI, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in hip circumference, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in waist circumference, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in blood pressure, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in heart rate variability, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in hemoglobin A1c, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in perceived stress, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in depressive symptoms, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in diet, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in activity minutes per week, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in daily steps total, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in measured steps per minute, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in sleep quality, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in sleep duration, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in estimated energy expenditure, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in heart rate, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in distance moved, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in minutes of vigorous activity, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in minutes of moderate activity, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in minutes of light activity, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in minutes of sedentary time, secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in number of manually entered and automatically detected physical activities (walking, running, etc.), secondaryOutcomes measure: Change in quality of life measures, eligibilityModule sex: ALL, minimumAge: 65 Years, stdAges: OLDER_ADULT, contactsLocationsModule locations facility: The Ohio State University, city: Columbus, state: Ohio, zip: 43202, country: United States, contacts name: Toluwa C Nafiu, B.S., role: CONTACT, phone: 614-293-2404, email: toluwaniose.nafiu@osumc.edu, contacts name: Joshua Joseph, MD, role: PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR, geoPoint lat: 39.96118, lon: -82.99879, hasResults: False
