Trial summary

Coronary artery diseases (CAD) are multifactorial diseases which prognosis and risk factors are improved with increased physical activity (PA). Thus, CAD rehabilitation (CR) program is mainly based on recovering sufficient exercise capacity and promoting regular personalized PA associated to modifications in lifestyle… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of a Short Physical Activity Program on the Level and Barriers to Physical Activity in Individuals With Coronary Artery Disease.

Coronary artery diseases (CAD) are multifactorial diseases which prognosis and risk factors are improved with increased physical activity (PA). Thus, CAD rehabilitation (CR) program is mainly based on recovering sufficient exercise capacity and promoting regular personalized PA associated to modifications in lifestyle habits to improve control of cardiovascular risk factors and health-related quality of life. However, most of patients do not achieve the recommended levels of PA which may be partly due to numerous barriers that hamper the return to a physically active lifestyle. One promising interventions strategy is so-called 'brief interventions' (BI) to increase PA in health care settings used to initiate change for an unhealthy behavior in individuals and consisting in "verbal advice, discussion, negotiation or encouragement, with or without written or other support or follow-up". An 'extended brief intervention' (EBI) is similar but usually lasts more than 30 minutes and is delivered on a one-to-one or group basis and can be composed of multiple brief sessions. However, in CAD patients, the effect of such interventions on PA level and behavior remains unclear, as well as predictor patterns associated with better outcomes.

The investigators aimed to assess the effect of a 4-day PA education program with multiple EBI and exercise on the level and barriers to PA in CAD patients and characterize the profile of participants (barriers to PA) with better outcomes.

What participants receive

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

  • 4-day physical activity program with behavioral interventionBehavioural

    Each program included 8-12 patients. During the four days, the participants had 4 collective sessions of educational information on PA and heart disease and 2 one-to-one sessions for promoting personal advice and experience on PA behavior. The participants had 6 sessions of PA and 2 food-counseling sessions.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
InterventionThe investigators included 32 patients who participated to a monocentric 4-day program for secondary prevention in cardiovascular disease, between January 2017 and October 2018. Participation to the program was on a voluntary basis and individuals were referred by their own physician, cardiac rehabilitation center or spontaneously. Eligibility criteria included age 18 years and older, stable coronary artery disease with appropriate medical certificate of fitness and no current medical conditions affecting sports participation. Patients unable to give written constent, with impaired cognitive functions, chronic motor deficiency or severe medical disorder (other than heart disease) significantly affecting functional abilities and individuals with insufficient information about medical history of documented coronary disease were excluded.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline BAPAC score at 3 months

    Score on the the BAPAC questionnaire (the barriers to appropriate physical activity in CAD patients questionnaire, total score calculated over 55, with higher scores for higher barriers)

    Measured: Two administrations: at the entry in the program and after 3 months follow-up

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change from Baseline BAPAC score after the 4-day program

    Score on the the BAPAC questionnaire (the barriers to appropriate physical activity in CAD patients questionnaire, total score calculated over 55, with higher scores for higher barriers)

    Measured: Two administrations: at the entry in the program and at the end of the 4-day program

  2. Change from Baseline Dijon Physical Activity Score at 3 months

    Score on the the Dijon Physical Activity Score (for quantifying the level of physical activity, score over 30 with higher scores for the most active individuals)

    Measured: Two administrations: at the entry in the program and after 3 months follow-up

  3. BAPAC sensitivity to change (the barriers to physical activity in CAD patients questionnaire, total score calculated over 55, with higher scores for higher barriers)

    Sensitivity to change of the BAPAC scale is calculated with the effect size (ES) and the standardized response mean (SRM). The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of BAPAC change is calculated using an anchor-based approach calculating the threshold associated with better improvement on Dijon PAS levels (patient changing from low active [<20/30] to active levels [≥20/30]).

    Measured: Two administrations: at the entry in the program and at the end of the 4-day program; Calculation of the sensitivity to change

  4. BAPAC sensitivity to change (the barriers to physical activity in CAD patients questionnaire, total score calculated over 55, with higher scores for higher barriers)

    Sensitivity to change of the BAPAC scale is calculated with the effect size (ES) and the standardized response mean (SRM). The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of BAPAC change is calculated using an anchor-based approach calculating the threshold associated with better improvement on Dijon PAS levels (patient changing from low active [<20/30] to active levels [≥20/30]).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Motivation, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 20 Aug 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 France. 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.

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 from Baseline BAPAC score at 3 months (time frame: Two administrations: at the entry in the program and after 3 months follow-up). 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 20 Aug 2019.
