About

Pilot study to evaluate the use of the Personal Activity Intelligence (PAI) score in a clinical setting.

Full description

This is a pilot project to evaluate the feasibility of a larger study to evaluate the effectiveness of Personal Activity Intelligence (PAI) score in patients with chronic disease, as an adjunct to lifestyle medical therapy.

The PAI score is a proprietary formula developed by PAI Health (PH) to aid physical fitness. A PAI score calculation uses biometrics obtained via a device that measures heart rate and steps. For this study, Mio Slice, a commercial wrist worn device will be utilized to obtain data which will be linked to a smart phone. Data from the smart phone app will be accessed by PAI Health. Feedback information will be given to the participants to encourage increased physical activity.

The short-term aim of this study is to evaluate the logistics of utilizing PAI in the patient setting.

The data obtained from this study will be utilized to devise a larger study to evaluate the utility of PAI in patients with chronic disease who are receiving lifestyle medical therapy.
