    Abstract Introduction: Current UK guidance for the treatment of intermittent claudication (IC) states that supervised exercise programmes (SEPs) should be offered as first-line treatment [1], prior to surgical interventions. However, there is currently a national shortage of dedicated SEPs. It has been suggested that the established network of UK Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) programmes could cater for IC patients. This study will investigate the feasibility of combining IC and CR patients into one SEP, and explore the patient perception's regarding the treatment programme, to establish whether CR could potentially fill the gap in service provision. Methods and analysis: Patients diagnosed with IC will be incorporated into a CR programme where they will exercise alongside patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Participants will attend a 2-h class, once a week for a total of 12 weeks. Another group of IC patients will attend an SEP consisting solely of other IC patients (control group). Outcome measures: The study will evaluate the feasibility of recruitment, retention, and participant experience of the intervention as well as physiological outcomes (primary outcome: pain-free walking, and maximal walking distance; secondary outcomes: physical activity levels, perceived walking ability, and disease-specific quality of life). Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and on completion of the SEP. Ethics and dissemination: Ethical approval for this study was obtained from North West- Greater Manchester West Research Ethics Committee on 13th June 2018 (IRAS ID: 230391). This study is registered with clinicaltrials. gov (NCT03564080) and conforms to the Declaration of Helsinki. Results will be disseminated via national conferences and published in peer-reviewed journals.

    Abstract Introduction The Prospective Physical Activity Sitting and Sleep consortium (ProPASS) is an international collaboration platform committed to harmonise thigh-worn accelerometry data. The aim of this paper is to (1) outline observational thigh-worn accelerometry studies and (2) summarise key strategic directions arising from the inaugural ProPASS meeting.Methods (1) We performed a systematic scoping review for observational studies of thigh-worn triaxial accelerometers in free-living adults (n≥100, 24 hours monitoring protocols). (2)Attendees of the inaugural ProPASS meeting were sent a survey focused on areas related to developing ProPASS: important terminology (Q1); accelerometry constructs (Q2); advantages and distinct contribution of the consortium (Q3); data pooling and harmonisation (Q4); data access and sharing (Q5 and Q6).Results (1) Eighty eligible articles were identified (22 primary studies; n~17 685). The accelerometers used most often were the ActivPAL3 and ActiGraph GT3X. The most commonly collected health outcomes were cardiometabolic and musculoskeletal. (2) None of the survey questions elicited the predefined 60% agreement. Survey responses recommended that ProPASS: use the term physical behaviour or movement behaviour rather than ‘physical activity’ for the data we are collecting (Q1); make only minor changes to ProPASS’s accelerometry construct (Q2); prioritise developing standardised protocols/tools (Q4); facilitate flexible methods of data sharing and access (Q5 and Q6).Conclusions Thigh-worn accelerometry is an emerging method of capturing movement and posture across the 24 hours cycle. In 2020, the literature is limited to 22 primary studies from high-income western countries. This work identified ProPASS’s strategic directions—indicating areas where ProPASS can most benefit the field of research: use of clear terminology, refinement of the measured construct, standardised protocols/tools and flexible data sharing.
