Outcomes
SECONDARY
The feasibility to be verified in this study is whether or not the system can be introduced and whether feedback using the system can promote an increase in the PA. Therefore, the primary outcome of this study was the average step count taken during the last 7 days of hospitalization (average steps). If the duration of hospitalization after obtaining consent was less than 7 days, the average steps until discharge were used, excluding the date on which the consent was obtained. The secondary outcomes were the number of steps on the day before discharge (steps at discharge), the change in PA between the number of steps the day after obtaining consent and average steps (Δ average step), and the average number of steps taken at moderate or greater intensity during the last 7 days of hospitalization (average active steps). Moderate or greater intensity activity was defined as 3 metabolic equivalents or more [
