Seasonal Physical Activity in Patients With Heart Failure With Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
follow-up study: Seasonal variations in physical activity will be objectively investigated in heart failure patients with implantable cardiac electronic devices.
Study summary
The aim of this observational study is to determine the effect of seasonal changes on physical activity levels in heart failure patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices.
Patients with heart failure who have a cardiac implantable electronic device will be evaluated throughout the year.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Participant's objective physical activity level — Every three months for one year (Patients will be evaluated in all four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter)
Objective measurement of physical activity will be assessed using an accelerometer (Garmin Vivosmart 5). The accelerometer will be placed on the patient's non-dominant wrist for one week, 5 days a week during weekdays and 2 days a week on weekends. The accelerometer can be used day and night, while sleeping or showering, and has enough battery life to collect activity data throughout the day. - Participant's subjective physical activity level — Every three months for one year (Patients will be evaluated in all four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter)
Additionally, physical activity will be assessed using International Pyhsical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ). The questionnaire examines physical activity in four different groups: vigorous physical activity, moderate physical activity, walking, and sitting. In the results evaluation, the data is converted to metabolic rate (MET) values and calculated accordingly.
