Brief Summary:
Patients admitted to the hospital often develop functional impairments due to being in bed most of the day. Each day of bedrest leads to significant muscle loss. As a result, many patients become dependent on others or require rehabilitation at a facility to improve mobility and function prior to returning home. Staff in the hospital is limited and often unable to mobilize patients every day while hospitalized. The investigators are testing a new experimental gamified physical therapy exercise software to see if it can be a fun, enjoyable way to help mobilize patients without the assistance of staff. The primary aim of this pilot/proof of concept study is to determine whether gamified physical therapy software can help inpatients exercise within the safety of their own beds and preserve pre-hospitalization function.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Gamified Physical Therapy Exercise Software Intervention + Usual Care
Participants randomized to the intervention group will be asked each day by a volunteer whether they would like to use the gamified physical therapy exercise software while in their beds. Participants willing to exercise will have the device set up for them to participate by a volunteer and the software will begin with a tutorial video for different exercises and then ask patients to perform in sequence with prompting and motion tracking. Exercises include Frontal Bicep Curls, Arm Crosses, Press Ups, Arm Rotations, and Basketball Shots.
Device: Yoomi Physical Therapy Software
Physical Therapy software via a computer/monitor will be set up for the patient. It will begin with a tutorial video for different exercises in the form of games and then ask patients to perform in sequence with prompting and motion tracking. Exercises include Frontal Bicep Curls, Arm Crosses, Press Ups, Arm Rotations, and Basketball Shots.

No Intervention: Usual Care
Usual Care



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Patient Satisfaction Score for Intervention Group Questionnaire (change is being assessed) [ Time Frame: Collected daily throughout duration of patient hospitalization, usually 1-2 weeks ]
  2. Software Utilization Time for Intervention Group (change is being assessed) [ Time Frame: Collected daily throughout duration of patient hospitalization, usually 1-2 weeks ]
  3. Percentage of exercise repetitions completed for Intervention Group (change is being assessed) [ Time Frame: Collected daily throughout duration of patient hospitalization, usually 1-2 weeks ]
    Completed exercises divided by assigned exercises by software


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Patient Self-Assessments [ Time Frame: Collected daily throughout duration of patient hospitalization, usually 1-2 weeks ]
    Activity Measure for Post Acute Care (AMPAC) scores done as self-assessments (Score ranging from 0 to 24 with higher being better)

  2. 3DCAM Delirium Scale [ Time Frame: Collected daily throughout duration of patient hospitalization, usually 1-2 weeks ]
    22 questions including self reported and observations by staff to determine if patient has delirium

  3. Change in Activity Measure for Post Acute Care (AMPAC) Scores [ Time Frame: Collected daily throughout duration of patient hospitalization, usually 1-2 weeks ]
    Activity Measure for Post Acute Care (AMPAC) scores done by nurses twice daily (Score ranging from 0 to 24 with higher being better)

  4. Length of hospital stay [ Time Frame: Collected at the time of discharge of patient hospitalization, usually 1-2 weeks ]
  5. Post-discharge care needs [ Time Frame: Collected at time of discharge, usually 1-2 weeks ]
    Number of Partipants with Post-discharge needs e.g. subacute rehab, home PT, home assistance, acute rehab, etc

  6. Post-discharge Self Assessed Activity Measure for Post Acute Care (AMPAC) Score [ Time Frame: 30 days post-discharge ]
    AMPAC scores done as self-assessments (Score ranging from 0 to 24 with higher being better)
