YOOMI: Effect of Gamified Physical Therapy Exercise Software on Inpatient Mobility

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Patients admitted to the hospital often develop functional impairments due to being in bed most of the day. Each day of bedrest leads to significant muscle loss. As a result, many patients become dependent on others or require rehabilitation at a facility to improve mobility and function prior to returning home. Staff in the hospital is limited and often unable to mobilize patients every day while hospitalized. The investigators are testing a new experimental gamified physical therapy exercise software to see if it can be a fun, enjoyable way to help mobilize patients without the assistance of staff. The primary aim of this pilot/proof of concept study is to determine whether gamified physical therapy software can help inpatients exercise within the safety of their own beds and preserve pre-hospitalization function.
