Interventions

  • Exercise programme — OTHER
    6 week pre-operative graded prehabilitation programme, delivered by video and performed by participant up to 4 times a week at home or in a gym setting
  • Wearable smart device — DEVICE
    Participants will wear a wearable smart device (wrist or ring worn) for a period for 14 weeks; 2 weeks prior to prehabilitation, 6 weeks during pre-operative prehabilitation and 6 weeks post operative monitoring,

Study Details

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a pre-operative outpatient exercise programme, monitored by a smart wearable device is acceptable to live kidney donor and recipient transplant patients. It will also look at the impact of prehabilitation on post operative outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is it feasible for renal transplant patients and live kidney donors to participate in a prehabilitation programme in combination with a piece of wearable technology? Are transplant outcomes improved by prehabilitation regimens delivered by video instruction? Are there discernible perioperative digital signatures provided by the wearable that link to surgical outcomes? Is the quality of perioperative sleep linked to surgical outcomes? Participants will: Wear a wrist or ring worn wearable device for a total of 14 weeks (2 week baseline, 6 week pre op and 6 week post op) Engage in a 6 week pre operative exercise programme at home/gym Keep a diary and answer surveys on their experience of the exercise regimen and wearable device

Arms

  • Experimental: Entire cohort
    All participants (both transplant donor and recipients) will be assigned a 6 week graded pre operative outpatient exercise regimen (prehabilitation) delivered by video instruction. Participants will also be monitored 24/7 by a wearable smart device for a total 14 week period (2 week baseline data collection, 6 weeks during prehabilitation and 6 weeks post op).

Primary Outcome Measure

Number days exercise regimen performed and wearable device worn [ Time Frame: From enrollment to the end of the study at 14 weeks total ]
