ASPIRE: A Study Promoting Critical Illness Recovery in the Elderly
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating cycle ergometry for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 24 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This proposal will test the hypothesis that EARLY application of a novel early rehabilitation therapy in critically ill patients will improve functional outcomes, and change the functional trajectory of this population. A pilot study of early mobilization with a cycle ergometer will be performed and translate into humans the pre-clinical mechanisms that may mediate the effects of early mobility. A second phase of the study was added in September 2019, which will focus on clinical outcomes.

Timeline
Interventions
The cycler will provide 3 different possible modes of cycling-passive, active-assisted, and active. The subject will start with passive cycling and may progress to active-assisted and active cycling.
