About this study

Official title: The Effectiveness of a Home-Based Resistance Exercise Training Program With Rubber Bands for Glycemic Control in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Resistance exercise is effective in improving glycemic control in diabetes patients. The effectiveness of a home-based resistance exercise program has not been establish.

Read the detailed description

Exercise play an important role in diabetes control. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) approved of resistive exercise as an effective method in controlling blood sugar of type 2 diabetes patients. Few community-based intervention has been establish. So the authors developed the low-cost community based resistance exercise program to promote exercise in of type 2 diabetes patients.

What participants receive

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

  • Resistance Exercise Training Program With Rubber BandsBehavioural

    Also called elastic band

    Resistive exercise consist of 5-min warm up, at least 30 min resistive exercise using rubber band as recommendation (8-12 times per set, at least 3 sets per day and at least 3 days per week) and 5-min cool down

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Resistance Exercise Training Program With Rubber Bands in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Prince of Songkla University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 2 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 4 Jul 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 Thailand. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

HbA1c (time frame: 3 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 4 Jul 2011.
