Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: FeedbackExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants in the intervention arm will receive a Fitbit upon admission and will receive feedback from the activity tracker and the in-room TV screen as demonstrated by the Study Navigator. Study participants in this arm will be engaging with their physicians around achievement of daily step goals by viewing the in-room TV display of their daily step counts on rounds.
Group II: ControlActive Control1 Intervention
Subjects in the control arm will receive a Fitbit upon admission for their transplant but neither the physician, nurse, nor patient will receive any feedback from the device. They will be blinded to any data capture by their activity monitor. Nurses and doctors will not monitor ambulation with the activity monitor, they will use standard methods to encourage ambulation.
