About this study

Official title: The Effectiveness of CVD Risk Profiles When Used by Allied Health Care Providers (HCP) Within a "Groupe de Médecine de Famille": The Healthy Options Feasibility Study.

The investigators hypothesize that having health care providers other than physicians within a "Groupe de Médecine de Famille" conduct cardiovascular risk assessments and teach lifestyle interventions to primary prevention patients will increase the likelihood that patients will adopt and maintain healthy lifestyles. These objectives will be supported by providing subjects with a cardiovascular risk profile estimating the subject's risk of cardiovascular disease and teaching them how to use the resources related to lifestyle changes available on the www.myhealthcheckup.com Web site.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CVD risk profile in people with Obesity and Sedentary Lifestyle, run by McGill University at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jan 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Feasibility of using health care providers other than physicians within a GMF to conduct a CV risk assessment and intervention on primary prevention patients (time frame: 10 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jan 2014.
