Promoting Physical Activity Behavior in Persons With Multiple Sclerosis
2021年12月16日 更新者：Matthew Plow、Case Western Reserve University
Using Targeted Print-material to Promote Physical Activity Behavior in Adults With Multiple Sclerosis
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether tailored print material can promote physical activity and exercise, and subsequently improve quality of life and fitness levels among people with multiple sclerosis (MS).
Research suggests that routine physical activity is beneficial in people with mild to moderate MS.
However, people with MS may face many barriers for engaging in regular physical activity.
Prescribing a home exercise program and receiving tailored motivational print material may help people engage in physical activity.
Thus, the investigators hope to figure out whether tailored print material can be used as strategy to promote physical activity and improve physical function in people with MS.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
The objective of the proposed study is to further our understanding of methods to promote physical activity (PA) in people with multiple sclerosis (MS).
The investigators will evaluate the efficacy of a print-based multifaceted intervention that consists of prescribing an exercise program and teaching self-management strategies.

実験的：Immediate Exercise
Subjects assigned to the immediate group will be prescribed a home exercise program during the first meeting.
During the 12 week training period, the subject will read pamphlets (sent by mail) once to twice a month about developing skills to manage MS symptoms and motivational pamphlets about physical activity.
In addition, the subject will have a phone conversation every two to three weeks with research staff to discuss the progress of the exercise program and to complete a short survey about his/her physical activity level.

Subjects in the immediate exercise group will be prescribed a home exercise program during the first meeting and will begin the 12 week training period immediately following the first meeting.

実験的：Delayed exercise
Subjects assigned to the delayed group will be asked to begin the same home exercise program 12 weeks following the first meeting.
During the 12 week training period, the subject will receive pamphlets, have phone conversations with research staff, and complete physical activity surveys as described above.

Subjects in the delayed exercise group will begin the home exercise program 12 weeks following the initial meeting.

Changes From Baseline in Physical Activity Behavior
時間枠：Each subject will be given the questionnaire at 3 points during the study, at baseline, interim test (an average of 12 weeks from baseline) and at posttest (an average of 24 weeks from baseline).
|
Physical activity behavior will be measured with the Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire. The Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire calculates total weekly leisure activity by summing the products of separate intensities. Weekly leisure activity score = (9 x time/week) + (5 x times/week) + (3 x times/week) for strenuous, moderate and light activities, respectively. The scale is summed to equal the Total Units Mean. With this scale, higher numbers are considered to be the better outcome as it indicates more physical activity. |
Each subject will be given the questionnaire at 3 points during the study, at baseline, interim test (an average of 12 weeks from baseline) and at posttest (an average of 24 weeks from baseline).

Changes From Baseline in Physical Fitness
時間枠：Each patient will be given the assessment at 3 points during the study, at baseline, interim test (an average of 12 weeks from baseline) and at posttest (an average of 24 weeks from baseline).
|
The physical assessment will include measuring the 6-minute walk test.
The units reported are in meters for distance traveled by each participant during the six minutes.
For this scale, the higher number is the better score as it is a direct measure of distance traveled.
|
Each patient will be given the assessment at 3 points during the study, at baseline, interim test (an average of 12 weeks from baseline) and at posttest (an average of 24 weeks from baseline).

Changes From Baseline in Quality of Life
時間枠：Each patient will be given the assessment at 3 points during the study, at baseline, interim test (an average of 12 weeks from baseline) and at posttest (an average of 24 weeks from baseline).
|
The Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale will be administered.
The total score is a sum of individual question scores, ranging from 29 (best possible outcome) to 145 (worst possible outcome).
Therefore, the lower the number, the better the outcome.
