A Prospective Randomized Pilot Study to Evaluate the Effect of a Mobile Health Physical Activity Intervention for HIV-associated Frailty

This pilot study will examine the effect of a mobile health text messaging platform linked to
a digital physical activity tracker on physical activity among persons living with HIV and
frailty.

HIV is associated with frailty, an important aging-related phenotype associated with adverse
clinical outcomes. The investigators propose that personalized health coaching using a
digital activity tracker with mobile health text messaging can increase physical activity in
this population. The total duration of the intervention will be 12 weeks.

Inclusion Criteria:

- HIV-1 positive adults of any gender

- Age 50 years and older

- Frailty score of 2 or greater (at least 1 criteria is slow gait speed or decreased
grip strength)

- Ability to provide informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

- Any physical condition that would prevent or prohibit moderate physical activity

- >3 days per week of moderate or vigorous leisure time activity lasting >30 min/day
