What participants receive

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

  • Wearable watch training group.Behavioural

    3 orientation session Watch notifies 3/week for exercise

  • Mobile application training group.Behavioural

    3 orientation session App notifies 3/week for exercise

    Benefits of app:

    Cheaper Trackable and notifiable if patients don't exercise.

What is being measured

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

  1. Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c)

    It used as a diagnostic test for diabetes and as assessment test for glycemic control in people with diabetes. It comes in unit of percentage identifies how much glucose is carried on a certain amount of blood. We included people who have 6.5% or more which is the cut point for The International Diabetes Federation and the American College of Endocrinology.

    Measured: 5 minutes

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Six-Minute Walk Test

    The 6-min walk test (6 MWT) is a submaximal exercise test that entails measurement of distance walked over a span of 6 minutes

    Measured: 6 min

  2. The forced vital capacity

    The forced vital capacity (FVC) is a measurement of the maximum volume of gas a patient can exhale as forcefully and quickly as possible after a maximal inspiration.Pulmonary function test used to determine forced vital capacity. Breathing multiple times into a spirometry, with regular and maximal effort, through a tube that is connected to a computer. The unit for this test is in volume (L). And it will be analyzed as a continuous variable.

    Measured: 10 minutes

  3. Forced expiratory volume

    Forced expiratory volume (FEV) measures how much air a patient can exhale during a forced breath. Pulmonary function test used to determine Forced expiratory volume.The amount of air exhaled is measured during the first (FEV1), second (FEV2), and/or third seconds (FEV3) of the forced breath. The unit for this test is in volume (L). And it will be analyzed as a continuous variable.

    Measured: 10 minutes

  4. Assessment of muscle strength with isokinetic device

    An assessment of muscle strength is typically performed as part of a patient's objective assessment.

    Measured: 15 minutes

  5. International physical activity questionnaire short form (IPAQ)

    The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) is used as a comparable and standardised self-report measure of habitual physical activity.

    Measured: 7 days

  6. Accelerometer

    Accelerometer is a device that measures hours of physical activity in a week. The device was placed on the belt of the participants and was collected back after 7 days. Accelerometer collects data on the three-dimensional angles, which explains the direction, frequency, and magnitude of the movement. Total number of hours of physical activity is used to measure whether participants meet the optimal activity level recommended by physical activity guidelines.

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Wearable watch training group., Mobile application training group. and Supervised exercise training group in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Marmara University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 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 1 Feb 2019. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) (time frame: 5 minutes). 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 1 Feb 2019.
