Physical Activity Telehealth Intervention After Percutaneous Coronary Procedures

August 30, 2023 updated by: University of Nebraska
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of using targeted daily cell phone interaction to facilitate behavior change for physical activity in previously-sedentary individuals who have recently undergone a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Regular physical activity is important in the maintenance of cardiovascular health, and is especially critical for previously sedentary individuals who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures. Changing behavior to adopt and maintain recommended physical activity levels in this population is difficult. Interventions to accomplish behavior change will not work unless they can be adopted into a person's busy lifestyle. This proposed study fills a gap by testing the feasibility of an innovative, targeted intervention (Physical Activity Promotion Telehealth Intervention), delivered by a practical and feasible platform (cell phone). The asynchronous targeted daily interaction will consist of 5-6 text, picture, and/or video messages delivered to the subject's cell phone each day. Upon successful completion of this study, it is believed that these feasibility findings will provide a foundation for the testing of a larger clinical trial to promote physical activity in this population.

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

19 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

  • Physician approval to participate in this study
  • Oriented to person, place, and time
  • Able to see and hear (able to read the screen of a cell phone, and hear audio over a cell phone)
  • Able to speak and read English.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Residing in area of Nebraska that does not have cell phone transmission

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Physical Activity Promotion Intervention
Subjects in the experimental group (Physical Activity Promotion Telehealth Intervention) will receive messages on the study cell phone - approximately 2 to 3 messages every day. These messages will be tips to help them engage in physical activity and also to help them keep the physical activity appropriate. Walking will be primarily the suggested mode of activity.
Behavioral: Physical Activity Promotion Intervention
Subjects in the experimental group (Physical Activity Promotion Telehealth Intervention) will receive messages on the study cell phone - approximately 2 to 3 messages every day. Depending on the subject's responses to the questionnaires at baseline (stages and processes of change) they will be given tips to help them engage in physical activity (such as messages to increase their self-efficacy or confidence, walking with a friend or spouse, breaking up physical activity bouts into 10 minutes bouts, etc.) and also to help them keep the physical activity appropriate. Walking will be primarily the suggested mode of activity.
No Intervention: Atttention Control
Subjects in the attention control group will receive only general health messages on their study cell phone (not physical activity promoting messages). They also will receive any usual post-PCI procedure care that all get.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Feasibility Aspects of the Physical Activity Telehealth Intervention
Time Frame: 6 months

Evaluate the feasibility of each component of this pilot study, in order to refine the intervention for a larger clinical trial. This will include:

  • Evaluate all aspects of implementation (numbers of subjects contacted, enrollment, attrition; problems and solutions identified using the telehealth platform, time for delivery; subject acceptance and perception).
  • Evaluate feasibility of the data collection methods (time required for data collection, missing data, reliability estimates of outcomes).
  • Estimate effect sizes for sample size determinations for a future, larger clinical trial.
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Physical Activity Measures
Time Frame: 6 months

Pilot test the impact of the Physical Activity Promotion Telehealth Intervention in post-PCI patients over time compared to patients receiving attention only, on the following outcomes:

  • Movement through the stages of readiness for physical activity.
  • Behavior change constructs (self efficacy for exercise, decisional balance, and use of processes for change).
  • Amount of physical activity (estimated energy expenditure per day as measured by the actigraph accelerometer) and exercise (reported minutes exercising per day).
