Positive Psychology for Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients (PEACE-IV)

6 de mayo de 2020 actualizado por: Jeff C. Huffman, MD, Massachusetts General Hospital

Positive Psychology for Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients: a Randomized, Controlled Pilot Trial

This is a randomized controlled pilot trial in approximately 50 acute coronary syndrome patients to determine if a 12 week, telephone-delivered, combined positive psychology-motivational interviewing intervention is feasible and more effective than a motivational interviewing health education program at improving health behaviors and other outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention will be associated with better mental and physical health outcomes and better health behavior adherence compared to the motivational interviewing health education program.

Descripción general del estudio

Descripción detallada

The initial study visit will occur in-person two weeks after discharge from the hospital. Participants will meet with a member of the study staff (the study "trainer") and complete self-report questionnaires assessing health behavior adherence and mental and physical health. Then, participants will be randomized to receive the positive psychology + motivational interviewing or the motivational interviewing health education interventions. A study interventionist will provide a treatment manual specific to their condition, review the rationale for the initial exercise, and assign the first exercise. If the participant is in the positive psychology + motivational interviewing condition, the trainer will explain the rationale for both the positive psychology and goal-setting portions of the program, and will be assigned the first exercise. Similarly, if the participant is randomized into the motivational interviewing health education program, the interventionist will introduce them to the program and assign the first exercise. Participants in both groups will then be given an accelerometer, which they will be asked to wear for 7 days to ensure that they are comfortable with the device and that useable data can be obtained from the participant. Participants in both groups will then complete twelve 30-minute weekly phone sessions with a study trainer. The phone sessions primarily will include a review of the prior week's session content and a discussion of the rationale and assignment of the next week's exercise/assignment. Upon the completion of these calls, and again at a final follow-up timepoint at 24 weeks, a blinded member of the study staff will call participants to administer self-report outcome measures. Participants will also be asked to wear an accelerometer at each of these follow-up timepoints as an objective measure of physical activity, which they will return by mail to the study staff.

Armas e Intervenciones

Grupo de participantes/brazo
Intervención / Tratamiento
Experimental: Psicología Positiva + Entrevista Motivacional
Los participantes realizarán ejercicios semanales de psicología positiva y establecerán sistemáticamente objetivos relacionados con la actividad física. Los entrenadores del estudio revisarán los ejercicios de psicología positiva por teléfono cada semana y usarán técnicas de entrevistas motivacionales para facilitar el establecimiento de metas.
Para la parte de psicología positiva de la intervención, el capacitador del estudio (a) revisará el ejercicio de psicología positiva de la semana, (b) discutirá la justificación del ejercicio de psicología positiva de la próxima semana a través de una revisión guiada del manual de psicología positiva, y (c) asigne el ejercicio de psicología positiva de la próxima semana. Para la parte de la entrevista motivacional, los participantes (a) revisarán su objetivo de actividad física de la semana anterior, (b) discutirán técnicas para mejorar la actividad física y (c) establecerán un objetivo de actividad física para la próxima semana. Los capacitadores del estudio utilizarán técnicas de entrevistas motivacionales para facilitar el establecimiento de metas.
Comparador activo: Motivational Interviewing Health Education
Participants will speak on the telephone each week with a study trainer. During these calls, the trainer will provide education about a health behavior (physical activity, medication adherence, diet, stress reduction) and assign an activity related to one health behavior each week. Motivational interviewing techniques will be used throughout to facilitate health behavior changes.
Each week, participants will learn about a different health behavior topic related to cardiac health. They will also be introduced to motivational interviewing topics in concert with the health behavior education topics. The intervention is divided into five sections, focusing on five different important cardiac health-related topics (recovery from an acute cardiac illness, physical activity, a heart-healthy diet, medication adherence, and stress reduction).

Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Minutes of Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity (Actigraph)
Periodo de tiempo: MVPA at 12 weeks and 24 weeks
ActiGraph GT3X+ step counters are validated as measures of physical activity and have been used in numerous studies of physical activity in patients with medical illness. In this trial, participants will wear the accelerometer for one week at 12 weeks, and another week at 24 weeks to assess the feasibility of doing so and to ensure adequate capture of physical activity. In our analysis, data on pre-ACS activity was collected using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) to control for baseline activity.
MVPA at 12 weeks and 24 weeks
Change in Medication Adherence
Periodo de tiempo: Change in score from Baseline to 12 weeks, 24 weeks
Measured by Self-Reported Medication Adherence (SRMA), a two-item self-report medication adherence scale measuring percentage of time (in 10% increments) patients report taking their heart medications in the past one and two weeks. Minimum: 0, Maximum:100. Change was calculated by subtracting the score at baseline from the score at 12 weeks and 24 weeks. Higher score indicates greater levels of medication adherence.
Change in score from Baseline to 12 weeks, 24 weeks
Change in Dietary Adherence
Periodo de tiempo: Change in score from Baseline to 12 weeks, 24 weeks
Measured by the MEDFICTS scale, a National Cholesterol Education Program-developed scale inquiring about saturated fat. Minimum= 0; Maximum= 216. Change was calculated by subtracting the score at baseline from the score at 12 and 24 weeks. Higher scores indicate lower levels of dietary adherence.

Change in State Optimism
Periodo de tiempo: Change of score from Baseline to 12 weeks, 24 weeks
Measured by the State Optimism Scale developed by our team (SOM), which aims to capture the changeable nature of optimism based on time and situation. Minimum:7, Maximum:35. The higher number indicates a greater level of optimism. Change was calculated by subtracting the score at baseline from the score at 12 and 24 weeks.
Change of score from Baseline to 12 weeks, 24 weeks
