Brief Summary: STANDARDIZED PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES MEASURED BY ACCELEROMETERS Background and aims Physical activity may be assessed by several different methods However the use of accelerometers is the most direct method available for real-time measurements The piezoelectric element of accelerometers records an electric voltage during movement which is then transcribed to Activity Counts AC Few studies have used Actical accelerometers to assess standardized physical activities and most of these were not applicable to patients in a hospital setting No previous studies have applied Actical accelerometers to the wrists or ankles during standardized activities The aim of this study is to record AC during different standardized activities frequently done by patients hospitalized for acute ischemic stroke

Methods Patients discharged since February 2012 after a transient ischemic attack have been invited to participate in the study scheduled for June-September 2012 nexpected25 All participants wear 5 accelerometers Actical one at each wrist and ankle and one over the hip Standardized physical activities include

treadmill walking 5 minutes 1 and 4kmh
staircase walking 1 floor normal pace
cycling with fixed load 5 minutes
standing up from sitting position and sitting down again x5
standing up from supine position
turning from left to right and back while lying in bed
raising outstretched arm 90 x5 standing position
eating 5 minutes sitting position
drinking a glass of water
sleeping 6 hours
