IB23095Feasibility of a physiotherapist-supervised walking program with telephone coaching to increase physical activity following acquired brain injury
Physical activity is important for the health of adults with acquired brain injury. This pilot study trialled a combination walking and behaviour change program with adults receiving rehabilitation in hospital, finding that while patients were interested in the program, they did not become more active as a result. This study does highlight the challenges for clinicians and for patients in increasing activity during rehabilitation in hospital.
