Study Summary
Standards for post-cardiac surgery physical interventions vary between insitutions and there are no published guidelines for national organizations in the U.S. The increasing body of evidence for the effectiveness of physical interventions coupled with variability in how these interventions are implemented suggests a critical need to prospectively determine the impact of clearly defined postoperative physical interventions. This randomized, controlled study seeks to determine the effectiveness of a three-pronged, enhanced, post-operative physical therapy protocol which includes 1) early mobilization, 2) frequent mobilization and ambulation, and 3) patient education on the outcomes of hospital lengths of stay and discharge disposition. The investigators will enroll 220 adult subjects undergoing elective CABG, mitral valve repair or replacement surgery, aortic valve surgery, or combined CABG/valve procedures. Subjects will be randomized to either the control (standard-of-care) group or intervention group (enhanced protocol), and followed for five days. Subjects in each group will wear a FitBit Charge 2 for the duration of the five days following surgery. This will provide both sleep activity and steps data that will be analyzed for sleep quality and distance walked. The primary aim is to assess the difference between groups for ICU and hospital length of stay.
