Study Summary

Implementation of physical activity promotion in routine health care delivery is low because of multiple barriers including insufficient health system support, care team coordination, and scarcity of community resources for referring patients and technology tools for sustaining lifestyle changes. This study is a pilot project to test the feasibility of implementing a physical activity promotion protocol, including routine evaluation of patient's physical activity levels and provision of educational material in the clinical workflow. Physically inactive adult patients with at least one documented cardiovascular disease risk factor will be invited to participate in physical activity intervention. Patients will be randomized to receive a wearable device or a smartphone app to objectively monitor their physical activity. Participants will be further randomized to receive automated motivational text messages, or a personalized motivational message, or no messages. Participants will be followed through the 12 week intervention period and an additional 12 weeks with no intervention.

Primary Outcome

Physical activity will be measured through the Microsoft Band app or with the Garmin vivofit 3. The physical activity of the participants will be monitored during the 12 week intervention period (when some study arms will receive motivational messages) and through 12 additional weeks of follow up.
