Auteur(s): Dena Bravata, Crystal Smith-Spangler, Vandana Sundaram, Allison Gienger, Nancy Lin, Robyn Lewis, Christopher Stave, Ingram Olkin, John Sirard

Objective: To evaluate the association of pedometer use with physical activity and health outcomes among outpatient adults.

Conclusions: The results suggest that the use of a pedometer is associated with significant increases in physical activity and significant decreases in body mass index and blood pressure. Whether these changes are durable over the long term is undetermined.
