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.

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.
