Experimental Treatment
Group I: Hospitalized patientsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This phase will recruit hospitalized bedridden patients who will be vibrated with the prototype device using various vibration frequencies to determine which frequency produces the optimal physiologic response. Physiologic responses will be determined with a number of devices capable of measuring such things as tissue oxygenation, oxygen consumption, and muscle activity. Blood samples will also be taken to measure certain chemical markers associated with activity and increase blood flow. They may receive multiple 5 minute episodes of various vibration frequencies.
