Trial summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of disability. Individuals with COPD are more likely to spend prolonged periods of time in sedentary behaviour (SB) and less in light physical activity compared to their healthy peers. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Get Up For Your Health: A Behaviour Change Intervention to Reduce Sedentary Behaviour for People With COPD

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of disability. Individuals with COPD are more likely to spend prolonged periods of time in sedentary behaviour (SB) and less in light physical activity compared to their healthy peers. SB is associated with exercise intolerance, reduced motivation to exercise, lower self-efficacy and more frequent acute exacerbations among people with COPD. To date, there is very limited information regarding behavioural approaches to reduce SB in people with COPD. The aim of this study is to examine the feasibility of a new 4-week theory-informed behaviour change intervention to reduce SB in individuals with COPD.

What participants receive

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

  • Get Up For Your HealthBehavioural

    The intervention is a 4-week behaviour change intervention underpinned by the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) that aims to reduce sedentary behaviour. The intervention consists of one individualized face-to-face session and 3 subsequent weekly points of contact (face-to-face meetings or phone calls).

    Behaviour change techniques will be provided including education, verbal persuasion, environmental restructuring and goal-setting.

What is being measured

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

  1. Enrollment rate

    Enrollment rate is calculated as a percentage (number of people enrolled/ number of people approached)

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Completion rate

    Percentage of those enrolled who completed the program

    Measured: 4 weeks

  3. Participants satisfaction

    Participant satisfaction will be assessed on a percentage scale of 0 to 100, with 100 being the best possible score.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  4. Adherence to wearing the activity monitor

    Percentage of those who were able to provide data for at least 8 hours per day of wearing time during waking hours and for at least 4 days/week for the entire duration of the study

    Measured: 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in sedentary time

    To assess the change in sedentary time as measured using an accelerometer from baseline to post-intervention.

    Measured: Baseline - week 4 (post-intervention)

  2. Change in number of sit-to-stand transitions

    To assess the change in the number of sit-to-stand transitions as measured using an accelerometer from baseline to post-intervention.

    Measured: Baseline - week 4 (post-intervention)

  3. Change in daily number of steps

    To assess the change in the number of steps as measured using an accelerometer from baseline to post-intervention.

    Measured: Baseline - week 4 (post-intervention)

  4. Change in self-efficacy

    To assess the change in self-efficacy to sit less using a scale adapted from the Multidimensional Self-Efficacy Scale over time from baseline to post-intervention. The scale consists of 9 items that measures 3 components of self-efficacy (task, coping and scheduling) with each item is measured on a scale of 0 (no confidence at all) up to 100 (complete confidence). The total score is the average of the scores of the 9 items.

    Measured: Baseline - week 4 (post-intervention)

  5. Change in outcome expectations

    To assess the change in the outcome expectations using a 15-item scale adapted from the Multidimensional Outcome Expectations for Exercise Scale over time from baseline to post-intervention. The questionnaire is a 5-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 5 = strongly agree), that assesses physical outcome expectations (6 items), social outcome expectations (4 items), and self-evaluative outcome expectations (5 items) with the higher the scores the more positive the outcome expectations are. The total score is the sum of the score of the 15 items.

    Measured: Baseline - week 4 (post-intervention)

  6. Change in knowledge of sedentary behaviour

    To assess the change in sedentary behaviour using an 8-item True or False questionnaire with higher scores indicating better knowledge of sedentary behaviour

    Measured: Baseline - week 4 (post-intervention)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Get Up For Your Health in people with COPD, run by West Park Healthcare Centre at 1 site in Canada.

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 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?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Enrollment rate (time frame: 4 weeks). The study lists 4 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 NCT04004585, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Jun 2020.
