Study Summary

Objective: Test the ability of vibration to produce physiologic, biochemical, and anatomic changes consistent with exercise that would help prevent the development of muscle weakness that occurs when patients are immobile for long periods of time.

Primary Outcome

Change in tissue regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation (rSO2) using near infrared spectroscopy of the thighs,calf, and biceps Baseline measurements were taken for 1 minute and vibration period was for 10 minutes. The mean value of rSO2 for 1 minute preceding vibration was computed as the baseline value. For the data collected during vibration, a moving average peak analysis for every 1 minute for 10 minutes of rSO2 data was carried out. The maximum value of the moving average was selected as th
