Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a hybrid type II feasibility randomised control trial and therefore has two separate intervention components: 1) the implementation strategies delivered by the research team to physiotherapists to enable them to use the clinical intervention (digitally enabled rehabilitation) in practice; and 2) the clinical intervention (digitally enabled rehabilitation) delivered by physiotherapists to people undertaking inpatient aged care and neurological rehabilitation.
Implementation strategies:
The COM-B model of behaviour change has been used to design the implementation strategies to address the identified barriers to implementation identified from the AMOUNT trial and related qualitative work (access to devices, lack of training and support to use devices, IT problems). The COM-B intervention functions to be used include education, training, enablement, and environmental restructuring. A clinical champion who is a clinical physiotherapist at the site will be identified and trained by the Chief Investigator (Physiotherapist, Manager of parent AMOUNT trial (ACTRN12614000936628), who developed the original intervention protocol) and research physiotherapist (delivered intervention in parent AMOUNT trial (ACTRN12614000936628) in the use of digital devices and the intervention protocol. Digital devices will be loaned to the study site. The physiotherapy team will be provided with resources (e.g., intervention protocol) and face-to-face education and training through two workshops held approximately three months apart. The first workshop will be run for about 3 hours by the Chief Investigator and the research physiotherapist who conducted the phase 1 (ACTRN12614000936628) of this study at least 6 months before the trial is open for patient recruitment. The workshops will involve education on current evidence, hands-on practical sessions using different devices, case studies from the AMOUNT trial, and discussion and planning with the clinical team on how to embed the use of digital devices into practice to ensure quality and quantity of practice for patients randomised to the clinical intervention group. After the first workshop, the clinical physiotherapy team will be facilitated by the Clinical Champion to start using the devices (and intervention protocol) in clinical practice by regular clinical reasoning sessions. Audit and feedback of practice sheets will be used to provide feedback to clinical physiotherapists in the quality and quantity of digitally enabled rehabilitation delivered and their recording of usual practice dosage. The second workshop will be conducted 3 months from the first workshop by the research team including the Clinical Champion, which will run for about 3 hours. This workshop will overview progress to date, experiences of using devices, embedding devices into practice, recording dosage of practice and trial recruitment. Ongoing support will be provided by the Clinical Champion weekly to the clinicians as needed until the end of clinical intervention. New staff and students commencing on the rehabilitation ward after the initial workshops will have a one-hour lecture on use of digital devices (based on what was presented in Workshop 1) delivered by the Chief Investigator and one-on-one sessions with the Clinical Champion as part of their clinical practice to teach use of the different devices and clinically reason use of devices with their patients. A training log will be kept by the Clinical Champion to monitor staff training and delivery of implementation strategies.
Clinical intervention (digitally enabled rehabilitation):
Patients randomised to the clinical intervention group will receive tailored prescription of digital devices to improve mobility and increase physical activity in addition to the usual care in an inpatient rehabilitation unit of a public hospital. The additional devices will be prescribed by a clinical physiotherapist based on baseline assessment, participant goals and preferences, and the device (and games or exercises within that device) suitable to address their mobility limitations in accordance with the intervention protocol. The additional intervention devices will be provided between 30 and 60 minutes daily for five or more days per week. The total duration of the intervention will be for 3 weeks after randomisation.
The prescription of digital devices to target mobility and physical activity problems may include, but will not be limited to recreational virtual reality systems (e.g. Nintendo Wii, Xbox Kinect), rehabilitation virtual reality systems (e.g. Humac, Fysiogaming, Lusio), exercise applications on tablets or smartphones (e.g. physiotherapyexercises) and activity monitors (e.g. StepWatch).
Each device will 1) provide feedback about task performance; 2) enable individualised tailoring and progression of exercise or physical activity; 3) enables progress towards a functionally relevant goal(s); and 4) is relatively inexpensive.
The clinical physiotherapist will teach participants to use the devices and will develop individualised exercise procedures to enable participants to use the technology safely to increase dose of practice. The exercises will be mostly functional exercises like sit-to-stand, stepping, walking etc. as well as individualised strengthening exercises like dorsiflexion, knee flexion in sitting etc. The types of exercises, devices used, and the repetition/duration of the exercises done by the participant using digital devices will be recorded in a digital devices practice sheet completed by clinical physiotherapist. Data on dosage of practice from devices that store this data (e.g., Fysiogaming) will be exported by the Clinical Champion and saved with the digital device practice sheets. If judged by staff to be safe to do so, participants will exercise unsupervised or with the supervision of family members/friends, nursing staff and hospital volunteers.
The trial will also embed a qualitative sub-study in which the experiences and attitudes of physiotherapists delivering digitally-enabled rehabilitation to adults with decreased mobility will be explored. All physiotherapy clinicians with involvement in the delivery of the intervention will be invited to attend a focus group conducted by a researcher not directly involved in the trial intervention. Focus groups will be run during embedding the digital devices into practice before the trial begins and towards the end of the trial to capture data from all physiotherapists that take part in the trial due to staff changes (e.g., rotations, staff resignations) throughout the trial. The Normalization Process Theory, the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) and the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ) will guide the conduct and reporting of the qualitative part of the study.

Comparator / control treatment
The control group will receive usual rehabilitation care as prescribed during admission to hospital and post discharge from hospital according to current practice. The usual inpatient care includes 1-2 hours of physiotherapy 5 days a week.
Participants in both groups will receive usual rehabilitation care (inpatient and outpatient) All participants will be assessed by a physiotherapist who will prescribe a series of repetitive exercises (e.g. practise of standing up or stepping). The conduct of these exercises will be supervised by the physiotherapist, a physiotherapy assistant or family member. The usual practice will be recorded in a usual care practice sheet. Participants will also receive assessment and management by other health professionals of the multidisciplinary team as required. At the time of discharge, participants will be referred to follow-up outpatient therapy and/or prescribed a home exercise program in accordance with usual practice.

Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
The trial will use a centralised web based randomisation system using REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) within The University of Sydney license. The randomisation schedule will be prepared and uploaded into REDCap by a study member not involved in the recruitment process. This will ensure concealment of allocation to groups and an auditable process.
Query!
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
A variable block randomisation schedule will be prepared using the Sampsi command in STATA v14 by a researcher not involved in the recruitment in the trial. The randomisation schedule will incorporate stratification for baseline mobility (SPPB score >=6 vs. SPPB score <6) and health condition (neurological vs. non-neurological health condition).

Statistical methods / analysis
Sample Size:
A total of 30 participants (15 per group) will be recruited. This sample will be a
representative of the target population and will be based on the same inclusion and
exclusion of a fully powered randomised control trial. Therefore, this sample size is large
enough to provide information about key aspects of feasibility measures being assessed.
Quantitative analysis
Quantitative analysis will be conducted using STATA statistical software. The feasibility
outcomes under processes (e.g. recruitment rate), resources (e.g. number of devices) and
management (e.g. completion of practice sheets) will be descriptively analysed using
frequencies, total numbers and percentages or proportions. For the scientific data (e.g.
patient-level outcomes), the main (intention-to-treat (ITT)) dataset analysed will be
constituted of all patients randomised into the study irrespective of adherence to
interventions. Between-group comparisons for each of the continuously scored outcome
measures will be made using linear models with baseline scores entered as a covariate. Fall rates between groups will be compared using negative binomial regression. Primary
analyses will be pre-planned and conducted while masked to group allocation. All analyses will be overseen by Investigator Sherrington.
Qualitative Analysis
Audio-recordings of focus groups will be transcribed verbatim and imported into NVivo
10 (version 10 produced by QSR International, Melbourne, VIC, Australia), a qualitative
software program, to assist in the process of data analysis. The Consolidated Framework
for Implementation Research (CFIR) will be used to code the data into implementation
themes where relevant. Data will be analysed guided by our research question and using
framework analysis as described by Ritchie and Spencer. Framework analysis involves
five steps: familiarisation with the data, identifying a thematic framework, indexing,
charting, mapping and interpretation. Free codes will be used where the coding frame
was considered to have gaps.. Participants will be invited to review a de-identified
summary of the transcript and add comments (i.e. member checking).

Summary
Brief summary
This study will look at the feasibility of physiotherapists using digital devices to improve mobility and physical activity in an inpatient rehabilitation setting in addition to usual physiotherapy care. It will look at the feasibility of running a fully powered implementation study in a large public hospital in order to pave way for a larger study to implement digital devices in rehabilitation for additional dosage, if this study is successful.
