Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

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.
Primary Study Purpose

OTHER

Blinding Strategy

NONE

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.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Virtual reality cycling exercise

These patient participants will receive 1 session of unsupervised stationary cycling exercise with the SYNCSENSE VR-technology every weekday of participation and be allowed up to 30min of voluntary exercise pr. session.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Virtual reality cycling exercise

Intervention Type DEVICE

Daily voluntary cycling for up to 30 minutes with the virtual reality technology

Conventional cycling exercise

These patient participants will receive 1 session of unsupervised stationary cycling exercise on every weekday of participation and be allowed up to 30min of voluntary exercise pr. session.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Unsupervised stationary cycling exercise

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Daily voluntary cycling for up to 30 minutes (WITHOUT the virtual reality technology)
