Older Adults With Cognitive Impairment Doing Sit to Stands, Walking in Transitional Care Programs: A Feasibility Study (OASIS)
The OASIS Walking Study - Older Adults With Cognitive Impairment Performing Sit to Stands and Walking in Transitional Care Programs: A Feasibility Study
The goal of this intervention study is to test the effects of a nurse-led mobility intervention (known as the OASIS Walking Intervention (Older Adults performing Sit to Stands and Walking Intervention)) in older adults with cognitive impairment, such as dementia, in transitional care programs.
The main questions this study aims to answer are:
- Is the study doable and are older adults satisfied with the intervention?
- Does the intervention improve older adults' muscle strength, mobility, functional status and quality of life?
Participants will be asked to do the following:
- Be interviewed once so that a patient-centred communication care plan can be made
- Do sit to stand activity
- Walk as part of a walking program.

Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of and satisfaction of participants with a novel intervention - the OASIS Walking Intervention (that is, the Older Adults with cognitive impairment performing Sit to Stands and Walking Intervention) in a facility-based TCPs.
The second aim is to determine the efficacy of the OASIS Walking intervention on muscle strength, mobility, functional status, quality of life, and discharge destination.
A feasibility study will be undertaken for this three-component intervention project. In terms of study design, a quasi-experimental one group time series design will be used.
A sample size of 26 patient participants and their substitute decision makers will participate in the study. Participants will be older adults ≥65 years admitted to a facility-based transitional care unit in Ontario.
The Older Adults with cognitive impairment performing the Sit to Stands and Walking Intervention is a nurse-led intervention that consists of three components: 1) Patient-Centered Communication Care Plan (informed by interviews with the participant and their care partner); 2) Sit to Stand Activity; and 3) Walking program. This intervention is grounded using a patient centered approach.
The dose of the intervention is: up to 45 minutes per session, five sessions per week, for six weeks. Approximately up to 30 minutes will be spent walking with the participant and up to 15 minutes will be spent performing the sit-to-stand activity.

Experimental: Intervention
Intervention Dose: Up to 45 minutes per session, 5 sessions per week, for 6 weeks. Approximately up to 30 minutes will be spent walking; up to 15 minutes will be spent performing sit-to-stands. Intervention Components: Component 1: Patient-Centered Communication Care Plan. A patient-centered communication care plan will be created, to promote enjoyment and engagement during the sessions. The care plan will be informed by interviews with the participant and their care partner. Component 2: Sit to Stand Activity. A target number of sit to stands per session will be determined based on a baseline assessment and according to an algorithm; the target will be progressed halfway into the intervention. Component 3: Walking Program. Based on the findings from the patient-centered assessment interviews as well as the performance of the participants on a walk test at baseline (Time 1), an individualized walking program will be carried out with participants. |

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Recruitment rate
Time Frame: From start of recruitment to end of recruitment (6 months)
|
Recruitment rate will be calculated as the percentage of participants who enroll in the study out of the total number of eligible participants
|
From start of recruitment to end of recruitment (6 months)
|
Retention rate
Time Frame: Calculated at the end of the study (6 months + 6 weeks from the start of recruitment)
|
Retention rate will be calculated as the percentage of participants who complete the study (i.e., receive the full dose of the intervention and provided post-test outcome data) out of the number of participants who were enrolled (i.e., signed a consent form and provided baseline data)
|
Calculated at the end of the study (6 months + 6 weeks from the start of recruitment)
|
Adherence (Level of engagement with the treatment [percentage]).
Time Frame: Calculated at the end of the study (6 months + 6 weeks from the start of recruitment)
|
The level of engagement with the treatment (percentage). For this study, the planned number of sessions is five per week for 6 weeks for a total of 30 sessions. Percentage = the number of sessions attended divided by the total number of sessions (30 sessions) |
Calculated at the end of the study (6 months + 6 weeks from the start of recruitment)
