Summary
This trial will investigate the effects of exercise on mental health, activity, and sleep in psychiatric inpatients.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adult psychiatric inpatients at Johns Hopkins Bayview who can consent to participate and are stable enough to safely do exercise. It includes those using mobility aids but excludes non-English speakers, patients with certain physical or neurological conditions, or those whose behavior poses a safety risk.
What is being tested?
The study compares the usual treatment groups with added exercise sessions led by occupational therapists. The goal is to see if regular exercise improves mood, anxiety levels, energy, and sleep among these patients over two three-month periods.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves exercise as an intervention rather than medication, side effects may include typical responses to physical activity such as muscle soreness or fatigue. Specific side effects will depend on individual health conditions.
