REMMHIIT-COVID Trial Summary

This trial is testing the feasibility of a new rehabilitation program for people who have been critically ill with COVID-19. The program uses high intensity interval training, which is a type of exercise that involves short bursts of very intense activity, followed by a brief rest period. The program will be remotely monitored and supported by mobile health technology.

Eligible Conditions
  • Coronavirus
  • Intensive Care Unit
  • Fitness Trackers
  • High Intensity Interval Training
  • Critical Illness

REMMHIIT-COVID Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: REmotely Monitored, Mhealth (REMM) supported High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
REmotely Monitored, Mhealth (REMM) supported High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) The intervention consists of high intensity interval training, consisting of a 30-minute exercise session that includes 10 x 1-minute intervals of high intensity 3x/week (e.g., Monday, Wednesday, Friday) and supplemented with 2 sessions per week of strength, balance, and mobility exercises (e.g., Tuesday, Thursday). Exercise will be supported by an activity tracker, which will allow study personnel to track patient heart rates during exercise on a daily basis, allowing them to provide individualized feedback and coaching.
Group II: ComparatorExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients randomized to the control arm will receive the same technology platform and education on exercise options, including HIIT, but will return home to exercise as they see fit without personalized instruction and coaching. They will be remotely monitored, but will not receive feedback unless any adverse events are noted
