About this study

Official title: The Movement Program for an Active and Healthy Lifestyle in Adolescents and Its Relationship With School Performance

School is a favorable environment for the development of actions aimed at healthy behavioral changes. This project proposes to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention program on aspects of lifestyle, with a focus on physical activity (PA) and reducing sedentary behaviors, and the relationship of these factors with the academic performance of students in the school from Florianopolis, SC, Brazil.

This is a randomized controlled intervention study enroling classes of 7th to 9th grade of fundamental education.

The intervention program will last for one year (about ten months), with three focuses: training of teachers, educational and environmental changes to behavior change.

What participants receive

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

  • The Movement ProgramBehavioural

    The program duration will be one academic year (around ten months) in 2017. The intervention strategies will focus on: (1) teachers' training and activities on health in curriculum; (2) active opportunities in the school environment (facilities and materials for PA practice) and (3) health education (posters and folders to students and parents).

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
"The Movement" ProgramExperimentalThe intervention program was structured according three main components: (1) training and activities in general curriculum and Physical Education classes; (2) active facilities in the school environment; (3) health education in school community.
Receives: Behavioral: The Movement Program
No interventionNo interventionSchools in the control group will maintain a regular academic year with conventional activities. Thus schools have two weekly Physical Education classes which are organized by according to the perspective of their teachers. Besides that, the Program "Saúde na Escola" is also performed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from baseline in weekly time in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity at 10 months

    A list containing 24 types of PA will be used to measure the weekly frequency and the daily duration of each type of PA that the adolescents perform in a typical week.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

  2. Change from baseline in the daily time using TV/computer/cellular/video games at 10 months

    The daily time spent using TV/computer/video games of the individual will be estimated at baseline and after 10 months of intervention.

    Measured: baseline and 4-months of intervention

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change from baseline in the healthy eating score at 10 months

    Healthy eating score will be estimated using two items related to healthy foods (fruits and vegetables) and three unhealthy (soft drinks, savory and sweets) foods in a typical week. Points from this list will be estimated at baseline and after 10 months of intervention.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

  2. Change from baseline in the body mass index at 10 months

    Body weight (kg) and height (m) will be used to calculate the body mass index (weight/height², kg/m²). Difference between baseline and after 10 months of intervention will be calculated.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

  3. Change from baseline in the waist circumference at 10 months

    Difference in the waist circumference (cm) between baseline and after 10 months of intervention will be calculated.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

  4. Change from baseline in the quality of life score at 10 months

    The quality of life will be measured using the KidScreen instrument. Difference in this score between baseline and after 10 months of intervention will be calculated.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

  5. Change from baseline in the sleepiness score at 10 months

    The difference of frequency and quality of sleep between baseline and after 10 months of intervention will be calculated.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

  6. Change from baseline in the academic performance score at 10 months

    Academic achievement and school attendance will be evaluated in order to create an academic performance score. Difference in this score between baseline and after 10 months of intervention will be calculated.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

  7. Change from baseline in the body image score at 10 months

    The self-assessment of the nine-silhouettes scale proposed by Stunkard et al. will be used to create the body image score. Difference in this score between baseline and after 10 months of intervention will be calculated.

    Measured: baseline and 10-months of intervention

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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

Are results available for this study?

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

Contact Kelly S Silva, Professor (ksilvajp@yahoo.com.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline in weekly time in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity at 10 months (time frame: baseline and 10-months of intervention). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02944318, which also lists 6 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?
