Exercise Activity Intervention With Sensor-Based Engagement in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Sponsor: Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
Summary
Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects 1 in 4 individuals during their lifetime and continues to increase in frequency and impact. Exercise intervention has established benefits to improve AF symptoms and burden in clinical studies. However, lack of access to exercise programs has limited therapeutic adoption. The growth of technology-driven health care and diagnostics, recognized as an emerging priority by the American Heart Association, offers an opportunity for a pragmatic and patient-centered approach to meet this need. EASE-AF is a prospective, interventional study with a sequential run-in control to evaluate if a digital health-driven, patient-centered exercise intervention improves AF symptoms and burden. The research team will enroll 120 patients with symptomatic, paroxysmal AF. The main impact of this study will be the establishment of evidence for a novel, pragmatic paradigm for a patient-centered, digital technology-driven personalized exercise intervention for patients with AF.
