A Multimodal Wearable Device-based Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of an Exercise Prescription Intervention in IBD

Overview

This project is a multimodal wearable device-based evaluation of the efficacy of an exercise prescription intervention for inflammatory bowel disease in a This is a single-center, randomized controlled clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of an exercise prescription intervention in inflammatory bowel disease based on multimodal wearable devices. The experimental group was treated with exercise intervention therapy on top of the existing medication.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that mainly involves the digestive system, including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC).CD is characterized by abdominal pain, diarrhea, abdominal mass, fistula formation and intestinal obstruction. CD is characterized by abdominal pain, diarrhea, abdominal mass, fistula formation, and intestinal obstruction; UC is characterized by diarrhea, mucopurulent blood stools, and abdominal pain, and the peak age of onset is between 15 and 40 years old. Notably, many studies have shown that patients with inflammatory bowel disease commonly suffer from malnutrition, low body mass index (BMI), muscle atrophy, decreased bone density, and fatigue and anxiety, and that surgery is not a one-time event, with patients often requiring several surgeries. Current treatment strategies focus on medication, nutritional support and nursing care, neglecting other possible adjunctive treatments. Exercise interventions, as an effective adjunctive therapy for inflammatory bowel disease, have been shown to have anti-inflammatory, anti-muscle atrophic, and physical enhancement effects, improve psychological status, and also have beneficial effects on intestinal flora and intestinal absorption. Exercise is also economical, efficient and highly feasible, making it more acceptable to IBD patients. With the integration of physical medicine and the implementation of Healthy China, the role of exercise intervention in the majority of patients will be more important and its application will be more extensive. Multimodal wearable device is a simple and efficient miniaturized smart device commonly used in the field of exercise, which can monitor the wearer's heart rate, blood oxygen, step count, exercise data in real time, etc. This group proposes to combine the multimodal wearable device as an auxiliary device with the exercise intervention for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is the first of its kind in China. Most of the current studies are conducted on the conditions of small samples, single period, and single exercise modality, lack of studies on large samples and multi index evaluation, and the field has not yet formed a unified consensus on personalized exercise intervention for different levels of patients. There is still considerable work to be done on the study of exercise interventions for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. Therefore, this group proposes to conduct a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effects of exercise intervention on body composition and disease progression in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
