Exercise for People With Spinal Cord Injury

19. Mai 2020 aktualisiert von: Kerri Morgan, Washington University School of Medicine

Exercise Training in a Community-based Setting for People With Spinal Cord Injuries

The purpose of the study is to examine the impact of a transitional exercise intervention implemented in the community for people with SCI on psychological well-being, social factors, and physiological health.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

People with spinal cord injuries (SCI) are at a greater risk for major health conditions and poorer health outcomes than the population without disabilities. For people with SCI, physical activity is critical for both physiological and psychological well-being. Currently a gap exists; prior research indicates that exercise programs conducted in a controlled clinical setting have positive effects on the physical and psychosocial fitness of people with SCI, but rarely are these programs available in accessible community-based exercise facilities. With this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the improvements of the exercise group - EG (formally-directed) in both psychological and physiological well-being as compared to the control group - CG (self-directed). The investigators also aim to identify the perspectives of the participants on the recruitment and enrollment process, the assessment methods, and the intervention protocol. The long-term goal of this research is to improve outcomes of people with SCI once they leave rehabilitation by identifying strategies to promote health and support exercise in the community. This study will implement rigorous research procedures to examine a transitional exercise intervention in the community for people with SCI. This study will serve as the initial step toward that goal by pilot testing an exercise intervention to help with the transition from supported exercise programs experienced during rehabilitation to the community. The investigators will recruit 40 adults with SCI to participate in this study; the EG will participate in a transitional 12-week exercise intervention at Paraquad Health and Wellness Center (PQHWC). The CG will participate in a one-hour education session, learning about the National Council on Health, Physical Activity and Disability (NCHPAD), and then they will maintain their typical physical activity on their own for a 12-week period. This project will measure the potential psychosocial and physiological health benefits of participating in a transitional community-based exercise intervention. The investigators will then use the findings to define how exercise in the community can support health outcomes and improve therapeutic interventions to promote health of people with SCI.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Aktiver Komparator: Formally Directed Group (Exercise Group)
A group performing a 12 - week guided exercise program at an accessible Community Health and Wellness Center
This group will receive a 12-week exercise intervention that will educate and support the person's ability to exercise. Working with a trainer, the participant will attend a 12-week (3 x week) exercise program that has been personalized to their goals. Each session will include warm-up, stretching, cardiovascular exercises, strength exercises, and cool-down. Each session will be 1-2 hours in duration. The participants may wear accelerometers and heart rate monitors to help determine the level of intensity of the exercises, as they should be performing at least 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise each week. By the end of the 12-week program, the goal is for participants to guide their own exercise regimens.
Placebo-Komparator: Self-Directed Group (Control Group)
A group receiving educational information about physical activity and exercise at home and then self-directing a 12 - week exercise program on their own.
This group will receive a 1-hour education session during which they will learn about the National Council on Health, Physical Activity and Disability (NCHPAD) website, an information and resource center on health promotion for people with disabilities. During the session participants will be given an overview of the website and asked to find three resources they find of interest. Their strength and fitness will also be assessed by completing a 1-rep max test. The participants will then be asked to maintain their regular physical activity for the next 12 weeks and complete a weekly physical activity log to track their exercise participation. A staff member will phone each person every week for the 12-week period and have the participant report his or her physical activity during the week.

PROMIS - Change in Fatigue (Short Form 8a)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, post intervention and 3 month follow-up

The Fatigue item banks assess a range of self-reported symptoms, from mild subjective feelings of tiredness to an overwhelming, debilitating, and sustained sense of exhaustion that likely impacts one's ability to execute daily activities and function normally in family or social roles. Fatigue is divided into the experience of fatigue and the impact of fatigue. The fatigue short forms are not disease specific and assess fatigue over the past seven days. PROMIS instruments are scored using item-level calibrations. Each question is answered using a 5-point Likert scale from "not at all (1)" to "very much (5)". Calculate a summed score and then use the applicable PROMIS score conversion table to translate the total raw score into a T-score.

The seven domains are scored individually, and the single pain intensity item is reported as its raw score.

Baseline, post intervention and 3 month follow-up
PROMIS - Change in Emotional Distress - Depression (Short Form 8a)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, post intervention and 3 month follow-up

The Depression item banks assess self-reported negative mood (sadness, guilt), views of self(self-criticism, worthlessness), and social cognition (loneliness, interpersonal alienation), as well as changed positive affect and engagement (loss of interest, meaning, and purpose). The depression short forms are not disease specific and assess depression over the past seven days. PROMIS instruments are scored using item-level calibrations. Each question is answered using a 5-point Likert scale from "never (1)" to "always (5)".

The Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale (ESES)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, post intervention, 3 month follow-up
The ESES is a 10-item, SCI-specific scale developed to measure perceived exercise self-efficacy for various types of physical activities. The scale requires individuals to self-report their confidence in performing physical activities and exercise. One dichotomous item asks whether the individual has exercised at home and/or in a gym in the past 12 months. Individuals respond to the 10 items using a four-point Likert scale (1: not at all true, 4: always true); the total score is then derived by summing the scores for the individual items; scores range from 10 to 40. Higher scores indicate greater perceived self-efficacy. The dichotomous item is used to estimate the participant's average exercise activity.
