MyHeart Counts Cardiovascular Health Study
Recruiting
I'm InterestedTrial ID: NCT03090321
Purpose
The MyHeart Counts Cardiovascular Health Study will utilize mobile health capabilities of
smartphones and wearables to assess daily activity measures of the general population and
compare these to measures of cardiovascular health risk factors and fitness. How people
divide their time among exercise, sedentary behavior, and sleep all affect cardiovascular
health, yet to date these have largely gone unmeasured. With the advancement of phone sensors
and wearable fitness tracking devices these factors are now more straightforward to gather
and measure. The use of smartphones by a large segment of the population allows for data
collection on an unprecedented scale. The investigators aim to amass activity and
cardiovascular health data on thousands of participants as well as provide significantly more
quantitative data on type,duration, and intensity of daily activities.
In the second phase of the MyHeart Counts Cardiovascular Health Study (Randomized Assessment
of Physical Activity Prompts In A Large Ambulatory Population) the researchers will conduct a
randomized controlled clinical trial of four different physical activity prompts
(intervention) and their effect on the level of physical activity in the study population as
measured by change in step count.
