About this study

Official title: Implementation of a Structured Lifestyle Program in a Primary Care Setting. Changes in Lifestyle and Effects on Cardiovascular Risk in Patients With High Cardiovascular Risk.

The aim of the present study is to describe and evaluate the effect of a structured lifestyle intervention program, focusing on lifestyle habits, in a primary care setting in patients with high cardiovascular risk. Furthermore, we want to explore the patient´s experience of lifestyle change and counseling after participation in the intervention program and to investigate the cost-effectiveness of the program.

Read the detailed description

Intervention The intervention program comprises five individual visits to the same nurse, specialised in diabetes care and the metabolic syndrome every three month during one year. The nurse led a person centered dialog based on the answers from a questionnaire. At every visit, focus was primarily on lifestyle habits, using motivational interviewing to strengthen the patient's ability to modify one or more lifestyle habits. Dietary counselling was in accordance with the Swedish recommendation in nutrition. If the patient were in need of extended counseling regarding one or more lifestyle habits, he or she could be referred within the primary care unit to a specialist. During the 12-month period, all patients where offered to participate in evening group sessions at three different occasions. Topics were physical activity, fatty acids, healthy food, tobacco and alcohol, stress, sleep and methods of how to change behavior".

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in physical activity

    Patients rating perceived physical activity on a scale 0-10 at baseline and at 12 months

    Measured: From baseline to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Framingham risk score

    The Framingham Risk Score is a gender-specific algorithm used to estimate the 10-year cardiovascular risk of an individual. Cardiovascular risk scoring systems give an estimate of the probability that a person will develop cardiovascular disease within a specified amount of time, in this case 10 years. Individuals with low risk have 10% or less CHD risk at 10 years, with intermediate risk 10-20%, and with high risk 20% or more.

    Measured: From baseline to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing structured lifestyle program in people with Cardiovascular Risk Factor and Lifestyle Risk Reduction, run by Uppsala University.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 21 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Change in physical activity (time frame: From baseline to 12 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 21 Sep 2018.
