About this study

Official title: SystemCHANGE-HIV: A Pilot Study Exploring the Effect of a Systems-based Intervention to Increase Physical Activity, Sleep Behavior, and Mental Wellness

The purpose of this study is to assess a new behavioral intervention to help how people living with HIV/AIDS practice self-management skills. Specifically, we want to see if a new educational intervention can improve physical activity, sleep, mental wellness and quality of life in HIV(Human Immunodeficiency Virus)-infected men and women. We hypothesize that those who are in the intervention group will practice more self-management skills than those in the control group.

Read the detailed description

Sample: The study sample will include 40 HIV+ men and women. Inclusion criteria include: a documented HIV diagnosis; adult (18 years old or greater); and English speaking.

Design: The SystemCHANGE-HIV study will be a 15-week, randomized, two-group experimental design including a 10-week behavioral intervention. In the experimental group, one half of the participants (n=20) will receive the intervention; and in the control group, the other half of the participants will undergo usual care. Both the experimental and control group will complete the same psychometric instrument packet, three times, to give a comparison of self-management before and after intervention and at a four-week follow up visit. This packet includes information on medical history, demographics, HIV self-management,physical activity, social support, social capital, mental wellness, and quality of life.Additionally, all participants will wear an actigraph for seven consecutive days, at each data collection point, to assess sleep.

Analysis:Preliminary data analysis will include descriptive statistics and scatter plots to examine the distribution of each outcome at each time point, as well as each covariate of interest. Although our randomization scheme will ensure balance of baseline variables between the two arms (other than that due to chance alone), we will estimate the standardized magnitude of each baseline difference as well as the correlation between each baseline variable and each outcome of interest at 10 weeks or at 15 weeks to objectively determine baseline variables that will be needed to estimate the unbiased effect of the intervention on each outcome. The primary analysis will be based on intent to treat approach and will investigate the effect of the intervention on continuous outcomes at 10 weeks or 15 weeks. In particular, an Analysis of Covariance model will be used that adjusts for treatment arm and the baseline level of the outcome variable. Such a model will allow us to estimate the effect of the intervention on each outcome, adjusting for the baseline outcome.In addition, linear mixed models will be used to determine if the effect of the intervention on the outcome at 10 weeks differs from the effect of the intervention on the outcome at 15 weeks. If needed, all analyses will be repeated using an as-treated approach. All analyses will be performed using a two-sided significance of 0.05.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SystemCHANGE-HIVBehavioural

    SystemCHANGE, is based on social ecological theory and focuses on redesigning the family environment and daily routines that are linked to health behavior. This framework emphasizes context and specifies that change is best accomplished by: identifying a measurable goal, examining the system processes surrounding attainment of that goal, listing several ideas that may improve the system, engaging in a series of experiments to test the best ideas to improve the process, implementing the most successful ideas based on data from the experiments, and monitoring the system to maintain the gains. The SystemCHANGE-HIV intervention works to help participants make small environmental changes made in family daily routines that will eventually construct an environment.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Aug 2011. 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 United States. 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?

Sleep quantity and quality (time frame: 15 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01256814, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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 30 Aug 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
